Pale straw with bright green hues, it has a nose of varietal yet refined citrus and passionfruit with hints of gooseberry and an edge of grass, hay and floral notes. The palate has a nicely textured mouthfeel that rolls around gaining citrus, grapefruit and passionfruit that drive all the way through the palate before clean zesty acids crash through the finish.
The fruit was hand picked during the cool early hours of the morning and was then rapidly transported to the winery and immediately crushed, chilled and pressed, where the free run juice and pressings were separated. The juice was cold settled for 3-4 days, racked off solids and then fermented in stainless steel tanks with a small proportion (5%) fermented in French oak barrels. Post fermentation individual batches were blended to style then the finished parcels are carefully assessed, with only the finest chosen for the final blend prior to bottling.
