- Vineyard Notes
Exceptional parcels of fruit from Tumbarumba in New South Wales and Langhorne Creek in South Australia
- Winemaking
Gentle fermentation and careful batonnage were employed to preserve the wine’s bright fruit profile and natural acidity. Maturation for five months in a mix of new and seasoned François Frères oak from Saint-Romain, Burgundy has imparted a fine structure and subtle toastiness. The result is a harmonious and expressive wine that showcases both richness and restraint.
- Tasting Notes
Opens with vibrant citrus and white stone fruit aromas, complemented by a fresh line of acidity that brings energy and precision to the palate. Subtle oak influence adds layers of creamy texture and finesse, leading to a long, elegant finish with refined complexity.
