Hugely aromatic with a zesty and weighty palate showing crisp green apple, lime and structured minerality.
Review: "Complex and fragrant with subtle bottle-matured nuances, it's beautifully lifted on the nose showing grapefruit, apricot, dried herb and jasmine aromas, leading to a flavoursome palate that's succulent and lingering. Wonderfully weighted and beautifully harmonious - 5 stars." Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

Tasting Notes
Aroma | Complex and fragrant with subtle bottle-matured nuances, it's beautifully lifted on the nose showing grapefruit, apricot, dried herb and jasmine. |
Palate | The flavoursome palate is succulent and lingering, wonderfully weighted and beautifully harmonious. |
Food Match | Pair with grilled salmon or pan-fried snapper, served with Mediterranean-style vegetables. |
Viticulture | Ōhau vineyard is perfect for cool climate wine production. Our temperatures drop several degrees before harvest, and the slow flavour development produces intensely aromatic, crisp, fruit-driven wines. The grapes were harvested in late March and early April 2021. |
Winemaking | The aim for this wine is a refined, mineral style. We select grapes from blocks with these characters and winemaker Jane Cooper uses slightly more restrained yeasts, and keeps the ferments clean and slow. Prepared for bottling in February 2022. |
Alc/Vol | 12.5% |
