Vintification:

The grapes were handpicked and upon arrival at the winery, they were gently pressed, then cool fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks at 16°C. Un-oaked, the wine was bottled in the spring following the harvest.

Tasting Notes:

Straw-yellow with a greenish hue. The wine's aromas of white fruit, stone fruit and lime zest are immediately beguiling and followed by a subtle yet persistent bouquet of green apples. The palate is well balanced with a fresh acidity and good structure. Pleasant almond notes linger on the finish.
