Tasting note
A wonderful rusty, coppery hue is a nod to the style. The aromatics are bright and intense with notes of stewed apple, honeysuckle and orange zest. Zestiness persists on the palate with a bright, mouth watering acidity that offsets the grippy bite of tannin from skin contact nicely, keeping the aromatics vibrant and racy across the palate.
Vinification
Gros Manseng and Petit Manseng are co-fermented using native yeast in stainless steel. Juice is left on skins throughout, for a total of up to 45 days before being drained off. Wine is then split 50/50 between steel and neutral oak to round out the brisk acidity and grippy tannin, whilst preserving varietal freshness.
Food Match
Seems made for middle-eastern cuisine and smoked meats, a real dream pairing.
