The 2022 White Blend Rocking Horse Cape is mainly Roussanne and Semillon (this blend changes every year) sourced from seven vineyards. This misses a little definition on the nose, cohering with aeration, bringing crushed stone, linden and wet wool scents. This bides its time. The palate is fresh on the entry with lemon rind and orange pith, fresh and energetic, quite linear and saline, though just a little shorter on the finish at the moment. Very fine.
