Tasting Notes
Maturation
10 months on full lees with minimal battonage. Then followed by 2 months on fine lees in stainless steel tank.
Palate
Juicy Summer stone fruits and a refreshing squeeze of citrus roll across the palate, layered with a salty, rockpool minerality and just a suggestion of oak. Subtle lees work adds roundness, giving the wine shape and volume while keeping it effortlessly fresh. It's sleek, balanced and quietly complex - the kind of wine that feels indulgent, yet sits happily at the table any night of the week.
Vinification
Partial whole bunch press. No or minimal settling. Partial Wild Yeast, high solid fermentation. Partial barrel fermentation, 10% new. French Oak - medium toast.
Vintage Notes
The 2023-24 growing season was splendid, marked by a welcome return to an El Nino weather pattern, and more stable weather conditions without dramatic temperature or rainfall extremes. Summer months were dry and warm but followed by an 'autumnal' finish to the season. A superb season producing wines with fruit intensity and poise.
Food Matching
Drink alongside roast chook with fennel salad, tempura prawns with ponzu, or a springtime asparagus and lemon risotto. This wine won't fail you.
