Description
- Dry style
- Barrel-fermented
- Dried apricot
- White florals
White flowers and dried apricot aromas, with a hint of smokiness. The palate is freshly textured with generous ripe stonefruit flavours and a long delicious finish. This wine is drinking well now but can be cellared for up to three years.
The grapes for this wine came from Leveret Estates Tantallon vineyard in the Hawke’s Bay.
The grapes for this wine were machine harvested and transported to our Riverview winery where they were pressed with a fraction of the juice going to barrel for fermentation and the remainder being fermented in stainless steel. A variety of yeasts were used, but mainly QA23 and Prelude. Following maturation in both oak and stainless, the wine was blended and tankered to the Katikati winery for final finishing and bottling. The wine was bottled on 6th June 2018.
