Clearly a cool climate wine. Very accessible with a flinty and restrained nose hinting of Cape gooseberries and freshly cut green apple on the palate. Minimal lees contact giving the wine an elegant, rounded and balanced appeal.
The grapes were harvested in three stages between 21 and 23° Balling. The grapes harvested in the morning went directly to the sorting table and the afternoon harvested grapes spent the night in a refrigerated container.
The grapes were de-stemmed before crushing and had skin contact for 6-12 hours. The juice was settled for 2-3 days, inoculated with cultured yeast, fermented at 13-16° C for 12-14 days and had lees contact for 3 months without stirring. The wine was filtered and bottled in May 2007.
