Medium to full yellow-green; the aromatics of the bouquet bring together every expression imaginable of lime and lemon, the palate following suit, minerally/chalky acidity providing both drive and structure. - James Halliday

Pristine pale straw with almost fluorescent green tinges. Lights on in this Wonderland, an intense late vintage of powerful jasmine, mandarin leaf and even lychee juice bursting fruit freshness, with invigorating, intense smells of lime skin, citrus blossom, green apple, ripe guavas and cinnamon spice. An extraordinary precise and clean fruit spectrum of crunch lime and other citrus fruit flavours, stone-fruit, including apricot as well as classic mandarin citrus on the mid palate, developing into rich lemon meringue tart-like flavour but still with a refreshing steely minerality, balanced with racy, slate-like acidity. Either immediately as an aperitif, or with almost any dish from spring salads to seriously spicy curries. With bottle age, the Wonderland of Eden Valley will open with more toast / custard aromas and flavours, softer fruits so then will be well paired with classic dishes such as soufflés and any cooked seafood.
