Tasting Notes:

Sun ripened straw in colour. A compelling nose of winter melons, floral gardens and savoury notes. Warm honey-spiced fruit further compliments the nose. The palate is characterised by tropical fruits, floral notes and spice from late harvested grapes. A lively acidity balances the fruit, resulting in a crisp finish.

Suggested Food Pairing:

An ideal summer wine that pairs excellently with Waldorf salad, grilled seafood and sushi, or simply on its own.

Description

Winemaking Practice:

After being lightly crushed the grapes were allowed skin contact for 8-12 hours after which the free run and pressed juices were separated.  The free run juice was cold fermented at 12 – 15°C. The juice was inoculated with a select yeast culture and fermented in stainless steel tanks. Reductive winemaking techniques were used to ensure minimal contact with oxygen, thus preserving the fruit character. The wine underwent lees contact for 7 months for added complexity and mouth feel.
