Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Aromas of cantaloupe and lilac lead into a juicy palate of lemon zest and light minerality that is
offset with lively acidity. This wine is sure to pair well with seafood.
Vineyard Notes
Sourced from two award-winning vineyards - Tudor Hills Vineyard and Gunkel Vineyard (Estate).
Winemaker Notes
Throughout harvest, Winemaker Richard Batchelor worked closely with local growers and visited each vineyard to taste for maturity and ripeness to determine the precise moment to pick the fruit. Grapes were harvested during the cool hours of the morning to preserve bright fruit notes and destemmed into the press, where each lot was processed on a champagne cycle. This is a slower press cycle that is extremely gentle on the fruit ensuring optimum fruit character is preserved. The juice was kept separate and partially fermented in stainless steel tanks with French oak staves. Once fermentation was finished, this wine was blended together to encapsulate the varietal character and highlight the harmony arising from the wood fermented portion.
