Nectarine, red apple and ginger. A hint of orange also. The entry is soft but pleasingly textured. Flavours of apple, pear and stone fruit are joined on the finish with mineral notes and a warm spice.

The grapes were harvested from several Marlborough vineyards. The majority of juice in the winery was fermented in-tank at various temperatures, and with various yeasts to capture varietal character and build interest.

Food Pairing: Works well with fish, or with hot baked ham.
