Tasting Notes
Aroma
It erupts with aromas of lush ripe passionfruit, citrus & stone fruits on the nose.
Palate
The palate shows moist grapefruits, lime pie and lychee's with a long textured finish and a delicate mineral edge. With this wine I do not want to play in the herbal, cat-pee on a gooseberry bush, or even the Ive just mowed the lawn, sweaty mans armpit style, rather I have made a wine with a balanced palate exhibiting a strong varietal style with fresh restrained acidity and elegance.
Vinification
The fruit is picked when there is an optimal balance between acidity and flavour, often a very tight window with Sauvignon Blanc. The grapes are placed into the press with a small proportion of whole bunches and stalks. The juice is cold settled overnight , with a small proportion decanted into French Oak barrels for wild ferment. The wine once dry, is left on lees for several days and Battonaged to further enhance the textured finish.
Food Matching
With the savoury edge and gentle textured finish, this wine will accompany a Seafood Platter with freshly cooked prawns and seared scallops in Pernod and tarragon butter, Hot Days, warm nights, cool music and a gentle breeze.
