Lucie’s Promise is a fresh and lively wine, with a lovely perfumed nose of raspberries and strawberries. The palate displays great fruit intensity with underlying hints of mint, reminding us of Lucie’s family garden in the Spring.
Fruit for the Rose was harvested from our vineyards during March 2017. The juice was run off the skins early, in order to extract only the perfect amount of colour and then inoculated and fermented cool. This allowed the retention of the summer berry characters, as well as retaining colour and intensity. Post fermentation the wine was fined, cold stabilised and filtered, ready for bottling. The entire process from juice to bottle was less than 6 weeks, keeping the wine fresh and vivacious.
Vintage 2017 is best described as a waiting game. The season was very long with fruit slow to ripen and although the urge just to pick it all was there, we had to bide our time until we had optimal flavours and ripeness. Once I made the decision to pick the grapes came in at an orderly pace, although increased yields due to the rain in spring made the juggling game in the winery even more challenging, with tank space at a premium. We made it through our marathon 2017 vintage and are thrilled with the exceptional quality including a number of really extraordinary parcels.
Highly Rated - James Halliday Wine Companion
"Like La Vue, no frills or tricks in the winemaking. Introduces another flavour spectrum, but there's not enough of it."
