A wine that is all about texture and tension rather than oak, this blend of Sauvignon Blanc,
18% Chardonnay and 16% Semillon was fermented and aged in amphoras, ceramic and
concrete eggs and older barrels. Herbal, structured and pithy, it has appealing aromas of
petrichor and fennel, flavours of citrus, tarragon and elderflower and an enticing bitter twist.

The 2024 Sandstone is a blend of 66% Sauvignon Blanc, 16% Chardonnay and 18% Sémillon, fermented mostly in amphora. It has quite a pungent bouquet that I really like, with touches of white asparagus and nettle and fine delineation. The palate is well balanced, with a touch of lemon and orange rind and just a hint of that asparagus again, with a lovely texture on the finish. It’s not a crowd pleaser, but I like its uncompromising nature.
