The Vintage: A great vintage with classic varietal definition in Semillon & Sauvignon Blanc wines. Textured & soft, with gentle acidity & ripe intense flavours. The Winemaking: Fruit was harvested at night with crushing & de-stemming. Some skin contact was employed to extract flavour & texture from the fruit. Juice was transferred with high solids to tank. 10% new French oak (for fermentation) & a selection of yeasts were used. The Wine: Passionfruit & mineral nuances with citrus; accents of lime leaf & juniper. Softly textured with fine acidity. The oak adds fullness to the palate with sweetness & spices.
