This light straw coloured wine displays ripe stonefruit and pear aromas with hints of toasty oak. The palate shows fresh nectarine and hints of citrus, with warm nutty notes. The texture is creamy with good palate weight due to the lees- aged barrel component. The fruit and oak elements are well integrated leading to a supple, balanced wine with a cleansing acidity and soft mineral finish. The palate shows textural weight and balance with a soft, creamy finish, and all the flavours are bound together with well-structured and well-integrated layers of oak complexity.
Grown in the stone-studded Rapaura soils, Stoneleigh wines are famous for their fresh, crisp style and vibrant flavours. Stoneleigh vineyards are located on the northern side of the Wairau Valley in an ancient riverbed. Over thousands of years, stones of all sizes were deposited by the Wairau River. Today our vines are planted among these stones, which we call sunstones. It is these sunstones and the unique stony riverbed soil structure, that are renowned for delivering Stoneleigh wines their quality and flavour.
Food Pairing: This versatile wine will work equally well as an aperitif, served with mixed toasted nuts and olives, or dishes such as roast chicken with apricot stuffing, prawn risotto with shaved parmesan, or grilled salmon with macadamia crust.
