The palate is equally satisfying with excellent weight and fruit intensity, splendidly supported by juicy acidity, finishing long and delectable.

Generous tropical fruit layers sit over a fresh herbaceous backbone, while ripe acidity drives a dry, lively palate of peach, citrus, and spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe season began with a warm, early spring that encouraged strong flowering and generous fruit set. Careful vineyard work, including crop thinning, ensured balance across the blocks. A cooler midsummer slowed ripening, extending hang-time and enhancing flavour development. By March, a stretch of settled sunshine delivered ideal conditions for the final ripening phase. Harvest began on 22 March and wrapped up just before April rains, with fruit showing exceptional freshness, concentration, and aromatic purity — hallmarks of a classic Marlborough vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fruit was de-stemmed, lightly pressed with minimal skin contact, and the clear juice cold-settled before a cool stainless-steel fermentation with neutral yeasts to showcase pure, vibrant fruit expression. The wine was then rested on its fine lees, adding texture, subtle savoury complexity, and enhanced palate weight.
