"Fresh and light, the wine shows lifted aromas of raspberry, Gala apple, citrus peel and floral, followed by a succulent palate that's juicy and refreshing. The wine offers splendid fruit purity and tantalising mouthfeel, making it fabulously drinkable" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Aug 2020
Vibrant fresh strawberries and brambles on the palate, with a silky yet juicy mid palate before an elegant finish. Platinum Pink. Ripe warm raspberry, cherry and jasmine florals.
The fruit was picked in the cool early morning while it was still cold to optimise varietal character and then gently pressed to retain only the premium freerun juice. Minimal time on skins was to achieve a delicate platinum colour and retain bright berry fruit characters. Short skin contact time was achieved to also ensures balance, by avoiding too much structural tannin and maintain elegance. Fermented at cool temperatures with selected aromatic yeast strains in stainless steel vats. Additional 4 months maturation on light lees to add palate weight and finesse.
Stony soils with overlying sandy loam, deep river silt and free draining gravels. 100% Pinot Noir.
Enjoy now or cellar for up to 3 years.
