Description

• Dry style

"Fine and delicate, it's elegantly expressed on the nose showing crunchy apple, lemon pith, strawberry and floral nuances. The palate delivers fine focus and silky flow, well complemented by juicy fruit flavours and bright acidity, finishing long and refreshing. At its best: now to 2024" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2023

This wine is lively with fragrant aromas of strawberries and cream, along with raspberry, melon, delicate blossom and ripe red apple. The palate has an elegant structure with juicy red fruits. An appealingly textured wine, it is refreshing with a lingering finish.

The grapes for this wine were sourced from two blocks from a single vineyard located in Marlborough’s Lower Wairau Valley, owned by the Holdaway Family.

We harvested the two parcels of different clones separately, about 10 days apart. Both parcels were crushed and pressed immediately to retain both the fresh fruit flavours and the delicate pale pink colour.
