Technical & Tasting Notes
VITICULTURE
Careful canopy management to protect the fruit from excessive sunlight. Hand picked (from low yielding old vines) at night when the temperature was coolest to retain maximum fruit flavour.
WINE MAKING
The juice was cool fermented in stainless steel with aromatic yeast strains with a small portion fermented on skins to add intensity and zest. The wine was then aged on yeast lees for three months to add roundness and retain freshness. The wine was bottled early to
retain fresh fruit characters.
TASTING NOTES
The palate is pear, zesty citrus with a touch of blood orange and thyme. Refreshing and approachable.
Reviews
Vintage 2020
“There are fresh lifted aromas of green apple with pear notes on the finish, clean and complex. In the mouth there is crisp acid, balanced by good fruit weight in the middle of the palate, a slightly viscous mouth feel adds to the overall complexity of the palate. Finishing long and clean a wine to be enjoyed now.” Stephen Read
