Well balanced with flavours of turkish delight and ripe citrus shine through. A nice bouquet of spices and musk round this wine off perfectly.
Fresh early January rains prepared vines for what was to be a mild & then dry Riverina vintage. The milder temperatures allowed for wonderful expression of fruit aromas and flavours and allowed the retention of natural acid in most varieties.
Winemaking Selected parcels of Traminer and Riesling were chosen for their varietal characteristics to enhance the flavour profile for this wine. With the Traminer we are looking for spicy musk, floral and rose petal flavours to combine with the floral and citrus flavours of the Riesling. Enlisting specific yeast strains to highlight varietal characteristics, individual parcels were fermented separately and temperature controlled for up to 14 days. Blending, clarification, stabilisation and final filtration occurring post fermentation prior to bottling.
