Production Details Grapes were handpicked in batches over a three-week period. When crushed, the grapes delivered a yield of 630 litres per ton. Following 6 hours skin contact, the juice was settled, racked and inoculated to ferment in tank at 14°C for 22 days. 3 months' lees contact improved the wine's flavour and body, followed by blending, protein stabilisation, cold stabilisation, and bottling.

Production Details The 2024 harvest demonstrated resilience and adaptability, with high-quality grapes and optimistic prospects for the resulting wines. Overall, the harvest was earlier than usual due to warmer weather. However, the wet and cool conditions of winter 2023 were beneficial for vine dormancy and soil moisture replenishment, setting up the vineyards for a strong growing season. Grapes were handpicked in batches over a three-week period. When crushed, the grapes delivered a yield of 630 litres per ton. Following 6 hours skin contact, the juice was settled, racked and inoculated to ferment in tank at 14°C for 22 days. 80 days' lees contact improved the wine's flavour and body, followed by blending, protein stabilisation, cold stabilisation, and bottling.
Tasting Notes
crisp citrus, zesty minerality, salinity, vibrant acidity, lime zest, green apple, sea breeze
Food Pairing grilled shrimp, citrus-dressed salads, creamy goat cheese, oysters, ceviche, herb-infused seafood pastas
