Grape Growing : We are proud to source the fruit for this wine exclusively from Marlborough and to be certified with Appellation Marlborough Wine (AMW). A mix of company owned or managed vineyards, and contract grower vineyards, are pruned to between two and four canes on a vertical shoot positioned trellis. Shoot thinning, leaf plucking and trimming are used to achieve balanced vines, a healthy canopy and clean fruit.
【Tasting Notes】
Colour / Appearance : Pale lemon.
Aroma / Bouquet : Classical Marlborough with aromas of grapefruit, lemongrass and crushed herbs underscored with complexing hints of tropical fruits and gooseberry.
Palate : Pure and concentrated with flavours of grapefruit, white peach, lemongrass, boxwood, and citrus with oyster shells and saline notes promoting a focused textural element. Medium-bodied, the palate is layered and dense yet retains elegance with a lingering precise finish.
