.
Vinification: A three day cold soak, followed by wild fermentation with 10 days on skins and gentle punch-downs twice a day to extract the amazing bronze/copper colour from the skins as well as the red apple and pear aromatics without extracting too much tannin, before being pressed off into barrel for the remaining 60 days of fermentation (72 days in total) with lees stirring twice weekly to increase complexity and mouthfeel.
Maturation: Lees stirring continued twice weekly on full solids for another month to give a creaminess to balance the acidity on the palate. The wine was then racked and bottled to retain freshness. Bottled unfined and unfiltered.
Colour: Clear and bright iridescent copper with shimmering bronze edges.
Aroma: Delicate and super complex with red apple skin, rose petal, strawberry, hints of almond and a lovely note of sweet spice.
Palate: Very delicate yet textural showing red apple, nashi pear, rose water and a touch of flint with great acid drive and wonderful length and freshness. This wine has and amazing creamy finish from the lees stirring through out fermentation and maturation.
