Growing Season
The fruit for this wine was selected from the winery block which has low vigour soils (shallow clay loam). Vigilant monitoring during the growing season was undertaken due to the susceptibility of this variety to late season powdery mildew. This low yielding block was canopy managed allowing 60% of shoots to remain unpositioned on the western side of the vine allowing protection from the hot days experienced during January. The vines reached desired maturity levels and were harvested at night on March 8th.
Winemaking
The yeast selected for fermentation (QA23) was used to produce lifted aromas. The ferment was held at 15C before being chilled, settled off lees and racked. An excellent wine to be enjoyed young and fresh.
Tasting Notes
The appearance is lively lime green colour. The aroma is of fresh tropical fruit salad which is also evident on the palate. An excellent wine for asian cuisine, seafood and salads. This Verdelho is best served slightly chilled.
