Pale gold on release. Orange blossom and hazelnut nougat. Ripe grapefruit and fresh pear with lingering notes of rock melon against a controlled oak release and balanced acidity.

The majority of fruit was harvested from the winemakers founding Falcon Block in the Renwick region of the Wairau Valley, Marlborough.

Fermented in tank before moving to French oak barriques for 10 months maturation in seasoned casks undergoing malolactic conversion for a creamy mouthfeel and controlled acidity.
