Description
"This is instantly appealing on the nose with ripe passionfruit, nectarine, feijoa and lemongrass characters. The palate delivers loads of tasty flavours and rich fruit intensity, leading to a lengthy refreshing finish. A fabulous expression, this is a real crowd-pleaser. At its best: now to 2019." Sam Kim, Wine Orbit. Aug 2016.
Sourced from our family vineyards across the Marlborough region, these grapes were harvested in the cool hours of the morning, gently pressed and fermented in stainless steel vats. After blending, the wine was left to settle on light lees before bottling on the Wairau River Estate.
This is an elegant wine with intense tropical and stone fruit aromatics with delicate citrus and floral notes, full flavoured and textured. The wine has fine mouth-watering mineral acidity on the finish that refreshes the palate, leaving you longing for more.
