A creamy, juicy and vivacious chenin whose fragrant bouquet of green melon, lemon and creamy, nutty yeast-derived notes becomes more floral and scented with smoky, mineral undertones. Medium in weight, it's creamy and viscous, with an intense core of white peach and lemon backed by gentle oak and a yeast-derived creaminess, finishing with a mouthwatering acidity and steadily become more interesting, smoky and savoury.

MMAD Vineyard
The team from Sahw + Smith, comprising Michael Hill Smith, Martin Shaw, Adam Wadewitz and David LeMire, are partners in this exciting new label which produces a collection of four wines from a vineyard planted in Blewitt Springs in 1939. The site is typically sandy and the wines it produces are fragrant and made to enhance perfume and flavour, perhaps in a style that is more European than traditional Australian.
