Notes of black cherry, violets and spice dominate the nose. The palate is full and structured, yet elegant, with flavors of luscious, dark, ripe cherry that are balanced by a fine, mineral acidity. Aging in French oak barrels has imparted a savory, spicy note to the wine. Awards: International Wine Challenge 2017 - GOLD

What’s In It: 100% Sauvignon Blanc

How It Was Made:

Winemaking: The Pinot Noir fruit for this wine was picked when it was showing perfect ripeness and balanced fruit avors. The parcels were cold macerated, before being warmed and inoculated with yeast. A hot fermentation proceeded, with regular plunging to craft a wine with elegance and structure. Post-primary fermentation the parcels were gently pressed off, settled, then racked off heavy lees and aged in a mixture of French oak barriques. The wine remained in oak while it went through natural malolactic fermentation. It was then blended and ltered for bottling.

Terroir: The fruit is sourced from different locations in the Seaview Vineyard in the Awatere Valley.
