The 2022 Sandstone, a blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and Chardonnay, is whole bunch pressed with 100% wild ferment with a high solid to juice ratio, just over half raised in Nomblot eggs. This has a lovely, pure bouquet with quince, orange pith and light nectarine aromas. The palate is well balanced with fine acidity, taut and fresh with orange rind and lemon zest towards the persistent finish. This is very promising.
