Capella, 2022

Capella*, our flagship white wine, a wine of grace and elegance, is a classic Bordeaux blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon.

Light gold in the glass, displaying intense aromas of grapefruit, beeswax, lime zest, and honeysuckle. The palate displays an array of flavours: lemon and lime and ripe grapefruit, with notes of peach and apricot and all tied together with bright, citrus acidity. Full and rich with a textural softness resulting from sur-lie ageing. A lovely minerality strings it all together, through to the very long saline-driven finish.

Recommended food pairings:  This is a seafood wine par-excellence, but roast chicken or herb-crusted pork would be excellent too. Enjoyable now, this is a wine which will develop an added sense of richness with age.
