Region
Riverina
Appearance
Pale gold with green hues.
Bouquet
Lifted floral aromas complemented with subtle spiciness and a fresh citrus lift
Palate
The crisp acid of Riesling is a perfect match for the generously rounded Traminer fruit. This fruity wine has a great balance of floral rose, musk, spice and sweet fruit finished off with a crisp lemon citrus bite.
Vintage Conditions
Drought conditions led to an earlier vintage than previous years. Dry weather and warm sunny days with low crop levels have created wines with great flavour intensity.
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 and floral and rose petal flavours to combine with the floral and citrus flavours of the Riesling. Each parcel of fruit was fermented separately over 12-16 days at 12º-14ºC. Once completed the wines were blended, clarified and stabilised prior to final filtration and bottling.
