TASTING NOTES
Pale straw in colour, with vibrant aromas of fresh pears, quince, ginger and delicate hints of cloves. The medium-bodied palate shows concentrated fruit flavours, bright acidity and a deliciously dry finish.
DESCRIPTION
The fruit was hand harvested and chilled overnight before being gently pressed and fermented with an aromatic yeast strain in stainless steel tanks. A small portion was fermented in old oak barrels to provide a textural element. After fermentation, the wine was kept in contact with the lees for five months. This classic technique enhances creaminess and integrates the flavours.
Cellaring: Delicious upon release, this wine will improve for 3-5 years post vintage.
Ideal food matching: Soft shell crab in tempura batter with a lime-chilli dip.
