Peach, light pear, citrus peel and a hint of spice. Medium-bodied with pear and peach flavours, mineral texture and a long finish.
The 2020–2021 growing season was warmer than normal, though cooler than two of the recent very warm years of vintages 2018 and 2019. Little rain fell from December to late March, and water deficit conditions prevailed. Cold and wet Spring flowering conditions resulted in fewer berries per bunch and significantly reduced yields — about 70% of normal. Above average sunshine and heat, coupled with the light crop, gave a record early harvest. The vine canopies survived the arid weather, largely due to the light fruit load, and fungal disease was largely non-existent. Wines from the vintage tend to have good concentration.
Only the finer free-run fraction of juice has been used. Around 40% of the wine is from handpicked, whole-cluster pressed grapes, with the juice from this very delicate portion fermented on light grape solids. The balance of the wine is from grapes machine harvested in cool evening conditions, de-stemmed and lightly pressed with minimal skin contact. This portion has been cold-settled to clarity. All the wine has been fermented in stainless steel tanks at low temperatures — using neutral wine yeast strains — to allow the vineyard characters to come through.
Food Pairing: Salads, seafood, poultry and egg dishes — a versatile food wine that pairs particularly well with smoked salmon.
