Description
VINEYARD
These grapes are a combination of our home block and the Creston Valley Vineyards site. The south-west facing slope allow free drainage and frost management for these vines. Ideally located to receive maximum sun exposure in the Creston Valley.
VINIFICATION
Our Récolte Blance is a blend of Schoenburger, Pinot Gris, Kerner and Gewurztraminer. The fruit parcels were hand harvested separately. Each variety was then fermented as a single batch in stainless steel tank at a cool temperature which protects the aromatics and fruit dimensions in the wine. Once fermentation was complete the parcels were blended to create a wine with an intense fruit profile.
SENSORY
The 2019 Récolte Blanche has a lifted nose exhibiting notes of peach, stone fruit and white flowers. This wine is off-dry in style with balanced sweetness and acidity. The palate is mouth watering and refreshing with a long finish.
