Technical & Tasting Notes
VITICULTURE
Careful canopy management to protect the fruit from excessive sunlight.
WINE MAKING
The grapes were chilled, gently pressed and the free run juice was kept chilled for 7 days prior to inoculation and a week long cool ferment. The cool handling ensured freshness and fruit brightness. Finally it was racked off lees and fined with vegan friendly fining. Minimum sulphur was used throughout the winemaking process.
TASTING NOTES
The floral aromas appear alongside mandarin and citrus with the palate having mandarin and lime razor sharp freshness which is complemented by some softer floral notes. Finishing bright and clean with a talcy complexity.
