Huon Hooke
Light-mid yellow, bright; there are waxy aromas, dried flowers and a whiff of honey. The wine is very dry, savoury, light and easy drinking. There's an earthy/mineral slant to it, too. Good food wine. Points: 90/100

Tasting Notes
Aroma
Very lifted nose of jasmin, freshly cut hay, dried herbs and grapefruit pith with
hints of honey and some sublte nuttiness on the nose.
Appearance
Pale lemon.
Palate
The palate is bright and refreshing, with a slightly beeswax texture. Vibrant
acidity flows across the palate delivering flavours of winter citrus, pink grapefruit,
minerality and spice.
Vinification
The grapes were machine harvested, crushed and pressed through an air bag
press in the protective presence of SO2. Cold tank fermentation was undertaken
at between 12 – 14 degrees Celsius. Post ferment the wine was protein and cold
stabilised and before being prepared for bottling.
Bottled June 2025.
Vintage Notes
The 2025 Vintage was warm and dry and early.
Food Matching
Freshly shucked oysters and plenty of them...

Jeni Port
Bright, green-tinged yellow hues. Swirling, delicate spring flower scents mix with white peach, melon, lemon citrus, grapefruit, quince and almond. Cuts a bright figure in the glass, crisp, with an almost lemon-juicy acidity – so fresh – and building in texture. Finishes firm and nicely grippy. Points: 90/100
