Winemaker’s Notes:
A light-hearted, fruity wine that packs lots of refreshment.

The grapes were harvested in the month of September when they had reached 19 brix. They were fermented for a four-week period in temperature controlled steel tanks.

The reason this is one of our most popular wines is due to it being a great compliment to so many different foods. This wine is best suited to light cuisine such as poultry or seafood, or as a pleasantly dry aperitif. Serve well chilled.

    An impressive summer time quaffer for under $10.

    Some citrus (lemon), lots of apple and a little bit of spice. Just chill and sip.

    The wine has some body weight to it on the palate. Lots of acidity to keep it nice and crisp and clean. Medium length finish.

    Do chill this wine. I tried a sample at room temperature and picked up a lot of sulphur. This was dispatched when chilled.
