Tasting Notes
Aroma
Vibrant aromas of freshly cut citrus fruit and floral undertones. Nuances of perfumed tropical fruit and a subtle barrel influence add a layer of nutty, herbal complexity.
Maturation
12 months
Vinification
The fruit is handpicked between three batches and whole bunched pressed using a gentle champagne press cycle. No enzymes or sulphur are used at the press tray and the juice is oxidatively handled to get rid of oxidative enzymes early on in the wine making process. The wine is left at ambient and transferred to barrel with full solids and minimal sulphur added. Fermentation occurs using wild yeast and is then left unsulfured to the following summer at which time most of the wine has completed full malo-lactic fermentation.
