Tasting Notes

This wine shows why our Southern Valleys vineyards are so special. Everything we’d hoped for and showing all the traditional Albariño elements, plus that extra fruit lift of New Zealand to keep it interesting. Vibrant acidity, white peach, winter cole pear, apricots and quince, with an orange zest undertone. It’s full and textural, yet refreshing and nicely balanced, with drying minerality to finish.

Vineyard Sites

We’ve planted it in our hottest site, the Southern Valleys vineyard, with ancient complex soils with a touch of clay. Terroir, we already know, is fantastic for giving wines incredible aromatic intensity and textural complexity.

Vinification

The grapes were machine harvested in the cool of the morning, cold settled and cool fermented in stainless steel tanks before blending and finishing for bottling in spring.
