Ageing Potential
An elegant wine, with great acidity and a nice round finish, that is enjoyable now, but can also be drunk over the next 5 years.
About The Harvest
The grapes for this wine were carefully selected from all of our Sauvignon Blanc vineyards on the farm. After being hand-harvested and cooled overnight, some batches were whole bunch pressed while others destemmed.
In The Cellar
The juice was lightly settled overnight without the use of enzymes. Spontaneous fermentation took place in seasoned oak barrels, and the wine was aged on its lees for 8 months. The wine receives its first does of SO2 once racked out of barrel.
