“A vintage defined by its crispness, vibrancy and freshness. Pretty aromas of honeysuckle, lemon blossom and Fuji apple spring from the glass. The palate boasts bright, lively layers of citrus with a hint of oak and creaminess from careful barrel aging and batonnage. Flavours of kumquat, lemon and Fuji apple linger in the juicy, mouth-watering finish.”

The grapes are picked over several days to ensure maximum freshness and ripeness, all hand-picked and transported to the winery in Alexander Valley. The grapes are optically sorted to discard any grapes less than perfect, and then pressed, before fermentation in steel tanks for twelve days using wild yeasts at around 18C. The wine is then transferred into used and 10% new French oak from Allier and Nevers forests, and aged for twelve months in oak ( with lees stirring ) and a further twelve months in bottle prior to release.
