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.
TASTING NOTES
Appearance is Pale straw. Lifted perfumed aromatics of musk, spice and ripened citrus. A generous and balanced palate of sweet rosewater and Turkish delight complemented by the crisp acid Riesling component adding a zesty finish. Serve with spicy pork buns or if youe adventurous, venison salad with Thai herbs. Drink whilst showing its youthful fruity flavours however, it can be cellared for up to two years.
