Sample
The wine was produced from the Greenachres Vineyard, with only 65 dozen made. Fermented using wild yeast and aged in 40% new oak it certainly got some luxurious treatment.

A generous and seductive nose that highlights quality cool climate fruit and the generous impact of tight grain french oak. The palate is etched around piercing nectarine fruit with a web of fig and vanillin oak influence that also gives a mealy texture on the mid palate. Good length to finish with a fig and spice edge to stone fruits.
