Flavoursome & lingering
Wine Orbit
Description
"It's elegantly expressed on the nose showing apricot, apple and lemon characters with hints of oatmeal and almond. The palate delivers lovely weight and juicy fruit intensity backed by bright acidity, finishing long and vibrant. It's flavoursome and lingering. At its best: now to 2021" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Dec 2019
An alluring nose of fresh white flowers, chamomile tea, white pepper and lemon zest. Bright pale straw coloured, it’s instantly appealing in the glass. To taste; white pepper and stone fruits with just a hint of allspice. And the palate - very complete; it’s full, well rounded and persistent; finishing perfectly crisp and refreshing.
The grapes for this Mystery Grüner Veltliner were grown from a very special site; geologically older soils of crushed river stones, intermixed with clay, free draining and naturally devigourating, which makes it ideal for premium grape production. All varietals grown on this terroir display a more exotic flavour profile, richer palate and distinctive “biscuity” minerality than those grown on the Wairau.
The grapes were machine harvested in the cool of the morning, cold settled and cool fermented in stainless steel tanks prior to blending and finishing for bottling in spring.
