Winemaking A blend of 90% Sauvignon Blanc, 5% Gamay and 5% Grolleau Noire. Vines are an average age of 30 years old. The Sauvignon Blanc grapes are hand harvested and processed as a blend of whole bunches and free run juice. This is then added to a one week macerated juice of Gamay and Grolleau Noire. The white and red grapes are then macerated together for a further one week. Once this is complete the juice is then matured in fibre glass for 6 months before bottling. The wine is unfined, unfiltered and sees no sulfur additions.
Tasting Note Dried cherry, spiced quince lend to sandalwood and peppery aromas. This as nice grip on palate and sits somewhere in between a rosé and an orange wine.
