Appealing aromas of ripe grapefruit and honeydew melon, with grass
and floral notes. Light and bright on the palate with crisp
citrusy flavors of grapefruit, lime and tangerine. To
highlight the wine's intense aromatics and fruit character, it did
not undergo any malolactic fermentation or oak aging. Cool
fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks. The
Semillon was blended to enhance the mouthfeel and balance
acidity.
Vintage Notes
Textbook conditions saw ideal spring bud break, steady flowering
and even fruit set. A lengthy stretch of warm days and cool,
often foggy nights during the long summer months gave plenty of
time for the grapes' desired flavor characteristics to
develop. Late and light rains held off until grapes found
optimal ripeness, bringing exceptional quality with a smooth
balance of acids and sugars.
