Vintage 2020

Following a winter with low rainfall, it was a dry start to the season. Heavy rains on January first (100ml) were a great relief and boosted fruit set and berry weight. Warm settled weather through late Feb and early March continued through harvest, and with little threat from frosts or stoppages from rain, ensured the fruit arrived evenly at the winery in excellent condition.

Tasting notes

Pale golden colour. Complex nose of jasmine, honeysuckle and gunflint. Palate follows through with pink grapefruit, apple and white stonefruit. Fruit concentrated structure with taut, bright acidity and mandarin peel on the finish.

Food pairing

It makes the perfect accompaniment to spicy food. Strong Indian and Asian spices are a perfect match. A perfect  pairing would be spiced duck leg.
