"Elegant and delicately expressed, the bouquet shows grapefruit, apricot, lime cordial and white floral aromas. The palate delivers excellent focus and linear mouthfeel, splendidly supported by vibrant acidity. Beautifully poised, finishing persistent and mouth-watering. Style: Off-dry. At its best: now to 2032" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2024
Pale lemon with lime hues. The nose is bursting with vibrant lime and apricot, with delicate nuances of florals interwoven with subtle honey and mineral notes. An off-dry style with apricot, green apple and citrus peel flavours that lead to a refreshing finish.
Flat and terraced areas were mined for gold using a ground slicing method where the larger rocks were put into piles in a herringbone pattern to direct water and washed material through a sluice channel to separate out the gold.
The fruit was hand harvested on the 26th of April 2022 at 22 Brix from Three Miners Vineyard, near Alexandra. The fruit was whole bunch pressed and then cold settled overnight before been racked to two tanks. The juice was inoculated with selected cultured yeast to enhance complex flavours and aromas. The fermentation continued to achieve balance and a seamless richness.
Food match: Poultry, seafood and Asian dishes.
