Pale lemon with excellent clarity. The nose is bright and expressive, showcasing a range of tropical and orchard fruits, from passionfruit to Granny Smith apple, blackcurrant leaf to white nectarine - all set against a delicate blossom and musk note. Juicy, balanced and pleasingly crisp on the palate, the hallmark Martinborough tropical fruit and dried herb complexity are at the fore. The ripeness and fruit weight tempers the mouthwatering acidity, drive a long, fresh finish.

70% from our older vines in the Clouston vineyard with the balance from our Pecarrow vineyard. Pressed to stainless steel, cold settled and cold fermented to 13% alcohol the older vines tend to throw more tropical notes with softer acidity making for a rounder style. The lees are stirred post-ferment for maximum character.

Food Pairing: At its best during the first 4 years from vintage, it's ideal as an aperitif or as a match for kaimoana, like pan-fried fish or green-lipped mussels in a Thai coconut sauce. The coriander, basil and mint notes found in Vietnamese cuisine are also an excellent match.
