Selectively picked grapes. Cold maceration ('cold soak') for 12 hours followed by gentle pressing and then fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel. The wine was left to rest for a short time before being bottled.
Pale straw-yellow. Pronounced nose of exotic fruits (pineapple, passion fruit, mango), ripe pear and honeydew melone. Soft and mild on the palate, with minerally notes, ripe papaya, mango and citrus. Long and elegant finish.
Sourced from elevated vineyard plots with stony soils that mostly consist of limestone marl. The grapes ripen relatively late in these cool-climate locations, retaining their natural fresh acidity as a result.
