Bright & crisp with zingy acidity
Description
Dry
Gooseberry flavours complement the citrus/pineapple flavours to form this refreshing wine. The wine shows bright stone fruit characters with a palate that just lingers on to a dry finish. The wine has a zingy acidity creating a crisp wine that can be enjoyed now or over the next two years.
The 2019 growing season was very warm and caused drought conditions in some parts of Marlborough. As the vineyards have good water security, winemakers were able to avoid any issues arising from water stress. The vintage itself was very enjoyable. The rain stayed away, allowing for grapes to be picked at optimum ripeness. Quality will be very high across all varieties from the 2019 vintage.
The fruit was picked in the cool of the morning and processed using anaerobic techniques. The cool fruit was de-stemmed, crushed and lightly pressed. At this stage the greatest of care is taken to handle the fruit as little as possible during these processes thereby retaining maximum fruit character and aromas. The juice was clarified by cold settling, after which it was racked and then fermented for approximately 28 days in stainless steel tanks.
