Hand harvested on 4 April 2024. Fruit was whole bunch
pressed and allowed to settle before being racked to
French oak Barriques. (approximately ten percent new)
The barrels were then allowed to begin fermentation using
wild yeast and a small percentage inoculated with cultured
yeast to add complexity. Fermentation lasted several weeks
and the wine was then warmed and began malolactic
fermentation. Once malolactic fermentation was complete
the wine was sulphured and allowed to mature in barrel
on its yeast lees to add complexity and intensity. The
wine was then racked from barrel, blended, heat and cold
stabilised, sterile filtered and then bottled on the 27th
February 2025.
Aromas of white stone fruit intertwined with subtle vanilla and caramel notes
introduce a palate of focused fruit intensity, showcasing nectarine and citrus
characters that gradually build and linger. Fine acidity and a long, balanced, mineral driven finish complete the wine’s elegant profile.
