The fruit for this wine was sourced from a number of vineyards and sub regions throughout Marlborough including Conders Bend, the Lower Wairau, Rapaura and the Awatere Valley. Each parcel of fruit was carefully monitored during ripening so it could be harvested at optimum maturity in cool conditions. After harvest fruit was transported to the winery with haste for immediate pressing with minimal skin contact to avoid juice deterioration. After settling, each batch was cool fermented in stainless steel using a variety of cultured yeasts to add complexity to the blend and to retain the fresh fruit characteristics from each of the vineyards. Shortly after completion of fermentation, the wine was assessed and selected for this blend before being carefully balanced and prepared for bottling. On the Nose the wine is intense, robust aromas of passion fruit and gooseberry with a nuance of lemon grass. One the palate intense passionfruit and guava with underlying lemon and lime flavors, leading to a balanced long finish.
