Description

  • Off-dry style
  • Citrus blossom
  • Ripe peach & baked apple
  • Silky & round

"Bright, evenly light Champagne colour with a pink hue. The nose is generous and upfront with intensely fragrant of cherry blossom, strawberry, red cherry fruit; layered with subtle peppery notes. The palate is bright and elegant, with notes of cherry blossoms, along with the sweet scent of strawberries, red cherries, along with a subtle bouquet of pink peppercorns; dry to taste. Light-bodied, a featured greek yoghurt impression creamy texture carried by mouthwatering acidity enrich by a layer of chalky mineral grip. This is a beautifully crafted dry white made from Pinot Noir, with intense notes of sweet berry fruit and cherry blossom, balanced by fresh acidity on a creamy, mineral palate. Serve with cured coppa and Asia fare over the next 2-3 years" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, Jun 2020

Pale apricot with clear hues. Perfumed and aromatic with citrus blossom, white peach, nectarine, mandarin and ginger. A lush and juicy entry of ripe peach, nectarine and baked apple. Silky and round with good minerality and ample acid to balance a fruit driven sweet peach finish.

The fruit (100% Pinot Noir) was harvested on 17th April 2019 and was whole bunch pressed to a stainless steel tank for cold settling. The juice was then racked and inoculated with selected wine yeast.  The cool fermentation was stopped on balance retaining a touch of residual sugar.
