Region

Appearance
Pale straw in colour with fresh green hues
Bouquet
Lifted aromas of peach and nectarine are complexed by subtle oak characters
Palate
The palate is soft with a creamy texture and is balanced by fine acidity to give a clean and very refreshing finish.
Vintage Conditions
The lead up to the 2009 harvest in the Riverina was one of the best on record, with refreshing rains during Spring and mild December temperatures. This led to fruit with flavour intensity and acid structure not seen for a few years. This all changed at the end of January with an unprecedented heat wave of plus 40 degrees for 14 days, which saw ripening stall for 3 weeks. Overall the vintage was good to excellent.
Winemaking
Fruit was sourced mainly from Riverina but about 20% of blend comes from Adelaide hills and King Valley to add freshness. Warm fermentation temperatures to add texture were employed as well as extended lees contact for creaminess.
Wine Analysis
Alc/Vol: 12.5% pH: 3.25 TA: 6.28 g/L
Cellaring
This wine should drink well over the next 2-3 years.
Suggested Cuisine
Try with creamy chicken dishes and rich seafood meat such as crab and crayfish.
General Characteristics
Dry Full Bodied
