Description
WINEMAKING:
The grapes were picked at optimal ripeness and transportedto the cellar in refrigerated trucks. Whole bunches were pressed and the juice settled overnight. Spontaneous fermentation by indigenous yeast occurred in both stainless steel tanks (47%) and French oak (11% new). The wine spent 12 months on the lees before being blended and bottled.
TASTING NOTES:
Quince, poached peach and a whiff of vanilla on the nose. The palate is fresh, offering up the peach and quince fruitiness but with a lovely lime tang and vibrance. All of that is offset against a gentle background of creamy oak – which is subtly but beautifully integrated with charming vanilla and butterscotch notes. Textured and long, nothing Is overplayed with impressive harmony, palate weight and genuine refinement. Rewarding aftertaste.
