"The 2022 Amphora has a well-defined bouquet, quite Chenin-like in style, with touches of popcorn and sea spray coming through with time. The palate is taut on the entry and continues in the quasi-Chenin-like vein. There,s fine depth, orange rind and hints of grapefruit towards the cohesive finish. Enjoy this over the next 4-6 years."
