"Ripe rock melon flavours with Royal Gala apple, pear and nectarine characters supported by gently tangy acidity. Mouth-watering wine with appealing purity and a lingering finish" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, May 2024
Nice bright yellow tones with pale hues. Subtle aromas of baked apple, tropical fruit with a hint of nectarine and sweet ginger. A textural palate, balanced with a flinty acidity.
La Niña’s weather pattern came with a generous warm Spring allowing even budburst and little interruption to shoot growth from traditional Spring frosts. The extreme westerly winds were avoided this vintage as the ‘energy’ of this season was being driven from a much more mild and wetter easterly flow. This however did not affect the yields for our block, and we averaged 6 tonnes per hectare. The temperatures remained cooler during the vital period of berr y development, with careful tendering of the vines the fruit was pristine and we managed to get the time needed to achieve desired ripeness crafting wines that reflect our limestone soils and terroir. Harvest star ted on 23rd April and the final grapes were gathered on 29th April.
