"Aromas of white fleshed fruits and citrus - apple and pear with a blossom and honeysuckle suggestions. Crisp, refreshing and youthful bouquet. On the palate - an off dry expression with some residual sweetness at first, then, acidity, texture and a vibrato on the palate moves in amplifying the flavours of honeysuckle, citrus and apple. Delicious, lengthy and salivating. A lovely example to be served as an aperitif or with myriad of delicate sweet seafood and salads. Best drinking from late 2022 through 2028+" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Sep 2021

Stone fruit, pear, yellow blossom aromas on the nose. Rich and succulent.

An unsettled spring meant a slow start to growing. After some warmer temps mid-November the inclement weather — including some low snowfall — continued into flowering. The vines set with small berries on compact bunches. There was a good amount of rain in January, then it dried out and heated up. Some screaming windstorms visited over Easter but we got through without damage. We brought the crop in at optimal ripeness. The fruit was disease free and delicious. Overall the season was warmer than normal, and the yields lower.

The fruit was harvested late in the season. Foot stomped and then whole bunch pressed, handled gently and fermented with indigenous yeast. Fermentation stopped with ~30gL-1 of natural residual sugar. Bottled unfined, filtered in July 2021.
