Avondale Cyclus

This white Bordeaux-style blend immediately draws the eye with its clear, brilliant, light yellow colour still tinged with green. The wine leads with inviting aromas of pear drops, mango, fennel and ripe figs with a subtle touch of waxy lanolin imparted by the inclusion of Semillon. Luxurious sun-ripened Golden Delicious apples and quince intertwine with an oyster shell mineral core, generous creaminess and harmonious acidity. A satisfying wine, displaying textured layers of fruit which linger indulgently. Whilst this wine drinks extremely well now, it will show even greater complexity with further maturation.

Pale and luminous, offering aromas of ripe stone fruit, citrus peel, and a touch of smokiness. The palate is textured yet lively, with a creamy weight, crisp acidity, and a mineral-driven finish. A hint of savory spice and gentle tannic grip add depth.

This 2022 wine is an expressive wine with an excellent balance between sweetness and acidity. The nose starts with some flint and khakibos, and opens up to present you with fresh tangerine, passionfruit, melon and gooseberry flavours that follow through on a creamy palate.  The White Blend presents a bold combination of fruit and freshness that gives the wine excellent length and elegance.
