Description

  • Dry style
  • Green rockmelon
  • Lemon zest
  • Fine acidity

"Beautifully aromatic and inviting with green rockmelon, passionfruit, fresh apple and lemon zest aromas, leading to a fruit-expressive palate offering bright fruit intensity with fine acidity, making it lingering and super tasty" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2023

Vibrant aromatics of ripe passionfruit and grapefruit. A fresh and classic palate of gooseberries, blackcurrant and bright citrus characters.

The fruit for this wine was sourced from a selection of vineyards across Marlborough's fertile Wairau Valley area, including the iconic Dillons Point sub-region. Each vineyard's yield was carefully managed and fruit monitored throughout the growing season by Heather and the team. The grapes were harvested upon reaching the desired flavour spectrum and maturity. 2023 was a fantastic vintage, with superb quality of fruit and intense flavours.

The grapes were machine harvested and transported promptly to the winery to be lightly pressed. The juice was lightly settled, then cool fermented with selected yeasts in stainless steel tanks, in order to retain the vibrant, fresh flavours and intense aromatics. Heather carefully selected her preferred blend prior to final bottling.
