Tasting note

This crisp, cool-climate wine features tangy green apple aromas and subtle toasted oak, offering a zesty, high-acid profile similar to a fine Chablis that can be enjoyed now or cellared for 4–5 years to develop deeper complexity.

Vinification

Gently basket-pressed and fermented for six months in old French oak barriques with no malolactic fermentation. To build texture and complex mineral notes without heavy oak flavours, 40% of the wine undergoes a wild fermentation, and the final blend is aged entirely on its lees without racking.

Food Match

Grilled chicken, turkey and pheasant.
