"Bright and fresh with inviting aromas of raspberry, crunchy apple and floral. It's juicy, lively and lingering on the palate, offering pristine fruit flavours together with fine texture and zesty acidity. At its best: now to 2022" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Dec 2020
Pale pink colour. Tropical and citrus notes are spliced with a hint of ripe red berry. A lively palate with juicy acidity and refreshing tropical flavours. Subtle hints of red berries emerge on the mid-palate and lead into a lovely, long finish.
Fruit for this wine was sourced from selected vineyards across the Marlborough winegrowing region, including our company Woolshed Vineyard in the upper Wairau Valley, along with long established growers in the Awatere and Wairau Valleys. Our Marlborough vineyards are situated on moderately fertile glacial soils. This includes a mix of sandy loam over very deep gravels, fertile loams and clays.
All round it was a great growing season, with warm temperatures ensuring perfect conditions for flowering and fruit set. The settled weather continued as the fruit ripened, with above average temperatures ensuring the development of juicy acidity and concentrated fruit flavours. At the time of picking, the fruit was in optimal condition — healthy, with great flavour and integrity.
This wine is made with a careful blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Merlot grapes. The Sauvignon Blanc was picked in the cool of the night to harness fresh fruit flavours, while the Merlot component provides that gorgeous pink colour.
Food Pairing: Fresh asparagus with avocado, almonds and a zingy citrus dressing.
