The grapes were hand picked in late February 2019.

Free run juice was settled and racked, innoculated with yeast and fermented at 13 degrees in stainless steel until the sugars dropped to 1.5 Baume, where it was transferred to French oak – 50% new – and matured on full lees for 12 months.

Tasting Notes

Aromatics of guava and pineapple follows through with peach, pear and nectarine palate, complemented with a creamy vanilla oak.
