"It's splendidly ripe and fragrant on the nose showing crunchy apple, lime peel, sweet basil and floral aromas. The palate delivers excellent fruit intensity and purity together with bright acidity, making it wonderfully flavoursome and highly enjoyable. At its best: now to 2025" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jul 2022
A refreshing wine bursting with aromas of pungent passionfruit and tropical fruits with fresh herb and lime notes. The bright pristine palate is filled with juicy, powerful passionfruit and tropical fruit flavours. This is a concentrated rich wine finishing long with fresh mouthwatering acidity.
The yield on the two and three cane VSP (vertical shoot position) trained vines were closely monitored through the growing season. Targeted shoot thinning was performed to produce optimum canopy growth and yield control. Each vineyard was carefully monitored during ripening and machine harvested in cool early morning conditions at peak maturity and flavour development.
The fruit was pressed quickly to minimise skin contact and juice deterioration following harvesting. After settling, the juice was fermented using selected yeast in stainless steel at cool temperatures retaining fruit flavour and freshness. All individual vineyard parcels were left on light lees and kept separate until May, when the blend was assembled from the most desirable parcels. The wine was bottled in June with an alcohol of 13.0%, pH 3.4 and acidity of 7.4 g/l.
