DESCRIPTION

Tasting Notes

Light straw. Lifted fresh spicy oak with hints of honey and apricot.

Wine Making

Fruit was harvested at optimal ripeness and fermented at 14˚C to retain the inherent character of each varietal. The wine was partially matured in a mix of one and three year old French oak barrels and carefully blended just prior to bottling to attain a wine with perfect balance and complexity.

Cellaring

Whilst enjoyable as a young wine, we believe the wine has the necessary components to improve in bottle over the coming 3-5 years. A perfect match with flathead tails and aioli.

The Grapes: Marsanne 44.5%, Viognier 39.5% and Roussanne 16% from Campbells Rutherglen vineyards.
Date Tasted: December 2017

Light straw. Lifted fresh spicy oak with hints of honey and apricot.

Palate:

Medium bodied and full flavoured, this wine has a mouthfilling palate showcasing flavours of fresh peach with lovely oak providing texture and balance. The finish brings forward spice to round out the crispness.

"A more medium-weighted wine, definitely not heavy although there's texture aplenty thanks to some ageing in seasoned oak. Also tangy and lively with a mix of stone fruit, ginger spice and lemon curd." - 93 points
