Cassini Cellars Quattro White Blend 750 mL
White peach and tropical fruit lead, followed by apple, pear, lemon zest and a touch of orange. The palate is creamy yet fresh, with subtle minerality bringing definition through the centre.

Rigour & Whimsy 2019 Hyperdrive 750 mL
Orchard fruit leads with a firm line of acidity and a clear sense of structure.

The two varieties were fermented separately before blending, preserving their distinct roles. The result is energetic and unconventional, with fruit and freshness held in a focused, well-defined frame.

A clean mineral line carries the fruit through a graceful, zesty finish.
