Juicy fruit flavours & supple texture
Wine Orbit
Description
- Dry style
- Poached pear
- Subtle spice
- Silky smooth finish
"Fresh and elegantly fragrant, showing fig, green pear, olive and floral aromas. The palate delivers gentle weight and smooth texture, well supported by juicy fruit flavours and supple texture, offering excellent drinking. At its best: now to 2024" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Nov 2022
Beautifully rounded flavours of poached pear and rockmelon with a subtle hint of spice. The finish shows well balanced acidity ensuring a full mouth-feel and a silky smooth finish.
The fruit was harvested at optimum ripeness and after pressing the juice was fermented in stainless steel tanks at cool temperatures to enhance the purity of varietal flavours.
The Echo was a 104 ft scow, rigged as a topsail schooner, used to transport goods in the early 1900s, from Marlborough’s coastal Wairau Bar, to the town of Blenheim by the way of the Opawa river. Todays the river meanders through Marlborough’s flourishing vineyards of the lower Wairau plain.
Food Pairing: Well matched with spicy Indian cuisine.
