Viticulture and Harvest

The fruit is thinned in summer and attention is given to ensure that a sufficient canopy allowed protected the grapes against sunburn.  

Winemaking

Picked at optimal ripeness. 13.2 Be. The juice was fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel, to dryness. The wine was crushed, pressed and settled so that the ferment was conduced with a perfectly clear juice. An aromatic yeast was used so as to optimise the inherent tropical fruit character. The wine was then stabilized and clarified prior to bottling in February 2023.  Analysis pH 3.18, Residual sugar < .1. Alcohol 12.9%

Alcohol 12.9

Tasting Notes

A crisp, floral white wine with flavours of pear, with just a hint of melon and almonds. A wine to be enjoyed with salads, seafood or chicken. Age will yield a full and rich palate with characters of honey-lemon and zesty marmelade.

Cellar for up to 8 years.
