Description
"It is delightfully fruited and lifted on the nose showing rockmelon, passionfruit, Kaffir lime and sweet basil aromas, leading to an intensely flavoured palate that is vibrant and tasty. The wine offers superb value and drinkability with its youthful fruit flavours and refreshing acidity. At its best: now to 2019" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2017
The fruit for this wine comes from several immaculately tended vineyards in Marlborough’s Southern Valley. The nose is intense with lifted aromas of freshly cut capsicum, gooseberries and zesty limes. The palate has more of the same with a mixture of stone fruit and integrated herbaceous characters. Flavours of passionfruit and citrus are also evident and assist to form a fruit packed, lengthy finish.
On the 16th October 1848, an earthquake with an estimated magnitude of 7.5 shook the Marlborough region. Land moved as much as 8 metres horizontally along a major fault line of at least 105km in the Awatere Valley, 25km south of Blenheim.
Food Pairing: Vibrant and lively this wine is at its best now and is perfect for drinking as an aperitif or with BBQ prawns and a fresh summer salad.
