WINEMAKER COMMENTS 

Instantly appealing with aromas of orange zest, poached nectarine, hazelnut, sweet baking spice and an intriguing note of wet river stone.
The palate is unashamedly rich and mouth filling up front, opening to a taut core of nectarine, pear crumble and toasty oak before a fine bead of acidity draws the palate out to a long textural finish.

GEOGRAPHICAL INDICATION

Central Otago

VINEYARD

Fruit was sourced exclusively from our vineyard in Queensberry from Block 13 (clone 15).

WINEMAKING

Hand picked and whole bunch pressed to stainless steel tank for a brief period of settling before being gently mixed and transferred to 500L French oak Puncheon (20% new) with high solids and left to ferment naturally with occasional lees stirring to enhance palate weight and texture. The wine underwent full Malolactic fermentation in barrel during its 10 months of maturation, softening the palate yet retaining a fine vein of acidity and giving a wonderful balance to the palate
