Tasting Notes
Aroma
A lifted nose of apple, pear and lychee with hints of spices.
Appearance
Pale yellow with light green hues.
Palate
The palate is juicy and fresh with nashi pear and nectarine
flavours with a crisp and balanced finish.
Vinification
The fruit for this wine was selected from a premium cool
climate vineyard in the Orange region of NSW. The grapes
were immediately transported to our winery in Pokolbin
where it was gently pressed. The juice was then cold settled
for 2 days and then the clean juice racked off lees.
Fermentation was conducted at cool temperatures of
14—16°C for 15 days in stain-less steel with an aromatic
yeast strain. The wine was then lightly fined with skim
milk, filtered and bottled early to retain freshness.
Vintage Notes
The 2023 vintage began in New South Wales with a cool and
wet growing season with above average rainfall in Spring.
These wet conditions increased disease pressure which was
carefully managed with good vineyard practices. The cool
conditions continued into late December and early January
but the wet weather cleared to sunnier than usual days.
Near perfect ripening conditions resulted in wines that
Have intense flavours, whilst maintaining freshness and
natural acidity.
