This blend of 50% Chardonnay and 50% Sauvignon Blanc is quite unique and has an amazing capacity to age!
It was grown on limestone and silex soils at high altitude (between 900-1200mts) on the slopes of Mount Ansariah in northern Syria, looking down over the Mediterranean Sea to the west.
2016 was a relatively cool vintage, perfect for the estate’s white wine. The nose is elegant, delivering notes of lemon, blood orange and white flowers. On the palate there is excellent acidity,
minerality, body and “fat”, with stone fruit underpinned with nuts
and honey. Its structure, balance, acidity and fruit should allow the wine to develop in complexity for several years after its release. 13.4% alc. Drink 2023-2027
Selected by Decanter Magazine as one of their Top 30 “Offbeat wines” of 2023, this wine was awarded 90pts and described by Andrew Jefford as follows:-
“Delightful leesy, zesty aromas with sweet herbal aspects of Sauvignon Blanc. Juicy, tropical fruit and phenolic grapefruit peel. Tangy and firm, with lovely acidity and brightness. Rounded, waxy richness on the palate, intense and concentrated, with lovely length.”
