Tasting Notes
Aroma
Intense and vibrant fruit character aromatics mingle with
citrus and spice.
Palate
A textural edge provides a food friendly aspect, and
cinnamon and nutmeg spice complement the nashi pear and stone fruit
flavours.
Vinification
The fruit was hand-picked and whole bunch pressed. 60%
of the juice was fermented in stainless steel to retain freshness and varietal
character with the balance being fermented in seasoned French oak
barriques. A slow and cool ferment occurred and once complete the wine
remained on its full lees until bottling in December 2022.
Cellaring Potential
Ready to drink now but will cellar well over the next 5 to
8 years.
Food Matching
Bouillabaisse matches the body and spicy notes of this
wine.
