HOW IS THIS WINE PRODUCED?
The hand-picked, Reichenstiener, Müller-Thurgau and Chardonnay were whole-bunch pressed and fermented in stainless steel tanks for around 14 days prior to malolactic fermentation. A varietal yeast was used for the first ferment, then the 18-2007 Champagne yeast for the second (in bottle). The wine aged on the lees for a minimum of 12 months prior to disgorgement.
TASTING NOTES:
Delightful floral and brioche notes combine with zesty citrus fruit, honeysuckle and elderflower. It is delicate and well balanced, finishing with a soft fresh hint of sweetness.
FOOD PAIRING:
This is great on its own as an aperitif or with some smoked salmon with lemon and dill
