Description

  • Dry style
  • Grapefruit
  • Herby minerality
  • Long palate

"Bright and instantly appealing with feijoa, kiwifruit, Gala apple and lemon zest aromas. It's punchy and flavoursome on the palate displaying excellent fruit power and persistency, finishing long and mouth-watering. At its best: now to 2023" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Aug 2021

"Distinctive and pungent bouquet with aromas of fresh herbs and white fleshed fruits, lemon and green apple, wet stone mineral and white blossoms. Crisp and fruity with salivating acidity then flavours of fresh citrus and tropical fruits that reflect the bouquet. Balanced, refreshing and well made. A classic" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Aug 2021

Subtle grapefruit and green capsicum notes with hints of orange peel, the palate is full and long with generous tropical fruit flavours and gentle herby minerality. A lovely, easy drinking wine from a high quality vintage.

2021 Harvest was another high quality but tough vintage for the Nelson region. Starting with a cool spring and late, dry summer volumes were down overall by 35%. On the upside, the quality of fruit is superb, perfect for making sensational wine.

Fermented and matured in 100% stainless steel.

Food Pairing: A delicious, crisp, refreshing wine. Served chilled with seafood, seasonal asparagus or fresh oysters.
