Mitchelton Single Vineyard Airstrip White Blend

A beautifully expressive Rhône-inspired white, this blend of Roussanne, Viognier and Marsanne opens with an inviting bouquet of spiced nashi pear, ripe fig and apricot, lifted by a gentle aromatic spice.

The palate is rich and textural, showing lovely rounded weight and generosity, with fruit sitting in seamless harmony alongside a fine, structured line of acidity. The result is a wine of balance and poise, combining ripe stone fruit depth with freshness and drive through the finish.

"Airstrip is back and it's boasting a different configuration with Roussanne taking the lead and the ripeness factor dialled up. The result is a wine that is quietly confident it will win you over with its warmth, generosity and complexity. Honeysuckle, acacia, peach, apricot, baked quince, beeswax and hints of mandarin orange produce an almost hedonistic experience, given life and energy by brisk acidity. The Rhône-style blend is integral to Mitchelton and its history. Here, it retains its old characterful ways, layered and mighty tasty, the perfect foil for food." 95 Pts, Jeni Port - Halliday Wine Companion
