Bouquet and Palate This light, fresh and deliciously sweet wine is the perfect aperitif. The slight natural effervescence is refreshing and cleansing, with fruit notes of guava and rockmelon with a cleansing zesty finish.
Cellar The wine is best enjoyed young as an aperitif style wine
Food Match with Aromatic Thai cuisine or desserts
Analysis
Alc 8%
Picked early in the morning, the fruit was delivered cool to the winery. Gentle pressing to minimise phenolics and cold settling preceded a long, cool fermentation averaging 12°C. The fermentation was left to run its course over 14 days leaving a naturally sweet, vibrant wine. A touch of spritz is detectable on the palate from the residual carbon dioxide which was harnessed and bottled to retain both fruit vibrancy and freshness.
