Stone fruit, melon rind and flower petal flavours with a vibrant green/straw in colour. Initial flavours are grapefruit, fig and nectarine. Some depth and persistence on the palate provides a wonderful natural fruit acid, the depth of flavour suggests some slight oak maturation or extended time on lees.
Select parcels of fruit were sourced from premium vineyards across Victoria’s premium viticultural sub regions.. The fruit was picked during the cool early hours of the morning. The fruit was then rapidly transported to the winery and immediately crushed, chilled and pressed. It is then allowed to settle before being racked off of juice lees, warmed and inoculated with selected dried wine yeasts. Fermentation occurred in stainless steel tanks of various sizes at 12-18 degrees. A small proportion of the wine was fermented in oak barrels to add a touch of complexity and texture to the wine. The finished parcels are carefully assessed, with only the finest chosen for the final blend prior to bottling.
