Silver Medal NZ International Wine Show 2024

Silver 4 star ribbon Bob Campbell MW The Real Review

“Moderately sweet white wine with sweetness restrained by tangy and slightly hard acidity. Good varietal definition and appealing purity with a lingering finish. Not at all cloying” 27 Jun 2024 Bob Campbell

“A tantalising mix of luscious, honey and ripe peach flavours with crisp, green apple and lemon curd characters. Nice sweet-sour tension creates appealing energy and a vibrant and lingering finish” 07 Jun 2024 Bob Campbell

Michael Cooper MA ONZM 4 star rating

“The lively 2023 vintage (****) was estate-grown and hand-harvested, with some ‘noble rot’ influence. Bright, light lemon/green, it is fragrant and light-bodied (9.5 per cent alcohol by volume), with good intensity of fresh, citrusy flavours, hints of apricot and honey, and a sweet (161 grams/litre of residual sugar), crisp finish” 5 Sep 2024 Michael Cooper

Description

A lifted bouquet of ripe apricots, pineapple and nectarine, with a rich and lush taste of apricot nectar, marmalade and Luisa plums on the palate.  The long, lucious finish makes this wine very moreish!

Food match suggestion:  Pair with strong cheeses,  lemon cheesecake or panna cotta.
