Brilliant Pale Straw in colour. Lifted tropical fruits, grapefruit, and citrus with layers of toasty oak. An Elegant yet complex flavours of lemon meringue, stone fruit and citrus are carried long by toasty oak tannins and natural acidity
Picked at optimum ripeness during the coolest period of the night to help retain the primary fruit flavours. It was transported directly to the winery post-harvest, crushed, and pressed to tank and allowed to cold settle. The juice was racked with some light lees to add texture and was inoculated with a cultured yeast strain. A portion of the wine was fermented in French oak whilst the balance was fermented in tank. Post fermentation the lees were stirred gently initially, until the balance between oak, lees and fruit characters was achieved. The Rosabrook parcel received partial MLF to soften the wine and add complexity. The wine was then matured on yeast lees for 8 months before being blended, fined, and bottled.
A mild 2020 spring with reasonable rainfall provided excellent growing conditions. A wet November followed by a warm and dry December and January set the vines for up for a regular season. However wet and humid conditions in February created an unusual vintage with extreme weather conditions. As a result, the 2021 vintage required extra work and attention to detail in the vineyard. The final wines show incredible flavour at lower baumes with bright natural acidity. Great fruit purity and varietal expression.
