Pale yellow straw with green edges entice the eyes while subtle notes of lemon curd complement delicate aromatics of white peach, grapefruit and nectarine. It is a fresh elegant wine with pure fruit flavours of white peaches and nectarine that are enhanced by crisp citrus acidity and a wonderfully refreshing finish.
Select parcels of fruit were sourced from the iconic McLaren Vale region of South Australia. The fruit was picked during the cool early hours of the morning. The fruit was then rapidly transported to the winery and immediately crushed, chilled and pressed. It is then allowed to settle before being racked off of juice lees, warmed and inoculated with selected dried wine yeasts. Fermentation occurred in stainless steel tanks of various sizes at 12-18 degrees. A small proportion of the wine (5%) is fermented in oak barrels and under went constant lees stirring to add a touch of complexity and texture to the wine. The finished parcels are carefully assessed, with only the finest chosen for the final blend prior to bottling.
