2015 Marsanne

Tasting Notes

The grapes were gently whole bunch pressed to extract premium juice. The juice was then put straight into French oak barrels for fermentation using indigenous yeasts. The wine stayed in the barrels until bottling. This process has produced a complex and rich Marsanne that can be enjoyed now or cellared for an extended time. 90 points Toni Paterson (The Real Review).

This is a beautifully-scented wine with lemon butter and caramelised apple aromas. The palate is bright, gently warming and delicious with impressive intensity and freshness. Lovely on its own, though it shows its true colours with food. 91 points. Huon Hooke (The Real Review).

Light to mid-yellow colour with a slivered almond, creamy bouquet showing lees influence. The palate is soft and rich and pulpy, with a clean and dry finish and some alcohol warmth which lingers. Very good wine, and it's youthful for its age. 91 points. Huon Hooke, The Real Review.
