"It's nicely fruited and lifted on the nose showing golden apple, apricot, nougat and toasted nut characters. The palate delivers gentle weight and rounded mouthfeel, well supported by smooth texture and juicy acidity. At its best: now to 2021" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jun 2020
Aromas of ripe white peach and nectarine, with a subtle hint of lemon zest. A juicy and fresh palate with flavours of white peach, fresh grapefruit and a touch of pepper spice and vanilla bean.
The fruit was sourced from a selection of vineyards across the Marlborough region. A combination of Chardonnay clones were carefully selected from across the region, made up of predominantly Clone 6. Each vineyard was carefully managed and fruit monitored throughout the growing season. The grapes were harvested upon reaching the desired flavour spectrum and maturity.
The grapes were machine harvested and trasported promptly to the winery to be lightly pressed. The juice was lightly settled, racked and then cool fermented in stainless steel and seasoned oak. After Malolactic fermentation, the wine was aged for ten months, prior to gentle blending and bottling.
