Description
Region: Bendigo Hills, Central Otago, New Zealand
Tasting Notes: Floral aromas of white blossom intertwined with freshly cut nectarine, and baking spices. The palate is reminiscent of baked apple strudel, with a fine balance of fresh acidity, silky textures, and finesse.
Winemaking: The fruit is hand harvested and whole bunch pressed, with the free run juice going to stainless steel and a small portion of seasoned French oak. The wine then undergoes a long cool fermentation to emphasise the floral and spice notes. It was aged on lees for 9 months to enhance the weight and complexity of the wine, before being gently filtered and bottled.
Technical: Alcohol - 13.0%. TA - 7.3g/l. pH - 3.4g/l. RS - 4.8g/l. Contains sulphites. BioGro certified organic and vegan friendly.
