Description
WINEMAKING:
The fruit was harvested by hand at optimal ripeness and transported to the cellar in refrigerated trucks. The grapes were whole bunch pressed, and the juice settled overnight before fermentation and maturation in a combination of older French oak foudres, 3rd and 4th fill 500? puncheons, and stainless steel (35%). The wine spent 11 months on the lees; thereafter, it was blended and bottled.
TASTING NOTES:
Aromatics of stone fruit with a nutty marzipan flavour and hints of oak are apparent too. The palate reflects the time the components of this blend spent in wood with a broad, creamy spiciness that complements the peach, quince, and gooseberry fruit flavours. Clean, structured, and powerful, the wine is kept in check with an acidic freshness. Lovely texture with good palate weight—the wine promises and delivers an elegant, creamy, long, and enjoyable mouthful.
