Pale straw with green hues in the glass and lifted aromas of passionfruit and flint combined with refreshing lemon-balm notes no the nose. Light bodied and fresh with typical Marlborough flavours of passionfruit, preserved lemon and grapefruit. Subtle flint and salty mineral notes lead to a long, silky lingering finish.

Fruit was sourced from several vineyards within different sub-regions throughout Marlborough including the classic Rapaura area, lower Wairau and the Brancott Valley. The fruit was carefully monitored throughout maturity and was harvested upon reaching optimum flavour development and ripeness. The vines were pruned using three or four cane vertical shoot positioning. Each vineyard’s yield is managed appropriately and is dependent upon the ability to ripen clean, quality grapes to their desired flavour spectrum. Grpes were transported to the winery with haste and pressed off with minimal skin contact, the resulting juice was cool fermented in stainless steel to retain freshness and varietal flavours.

Food Pairing: A perfect match for any fresh seafood.
