A tropical flavoured wine lower in alcohol but rich in flavour...
$10.99p/Btl

Description

  • Off-dry style
  • Gooseberry
  • Citrus & grapefruit
  • Crushed herbs

Pale straw with green hues in the glass. Bright gooseberry, citrus and crushed herbs aromas on the nose. An elegant and lighter palate with fine layers of grapefruit, salt and an underlying herbaceous crunch. Perfect for drinking now and will retain freshness for the next three years.

Grapes were harvested at optimum flavour intensity before the sugar levels became too high. This allowed the production of a wine lower in alcohol but rich in flavour. The grapes were machine harvested at cool temperatures and processed immediately to minimise skin contact. The juice was cool fermented in stainless steel to retain varietal character and freshness. Fermentation was stopped to retain some residual sugar in order to give the wine palate weight.

Food Pairing: An ideal lunch time wine or aperitif. A perfect match for seafood or a fresh summer salad.
