2023 Blanc de Noir
TASTING NOTES
Colour: Medium intensity of white gold, with lemon-gold hues.
Bouquet: Clean pronounced primary aromas. Notes of green apple skin, baked pear, and apricot.
Palate: A front palate filled with green fruits of apple, pear and citrus notes. A dry style that is light-medium bodied, with good acid drive keeping the wine fresh and vibrant.
Cellaring: The youthful freshness on release is so delicious and should be enjoyed young.
Pairing: Coming into the warmer months this wine is best paired with oysters, smoked salmon, and a cheese board.
Vintage: Vintage 2023 began with a very wet spring. Rain and cool temperatures were the theme until Christmas. Into the new year, the rain ceased and some warmer weather followed. It was long and late with grapes being harvested until the middle of May. This long cool vintage allowed fruit flavours to mature, while natural acidity was retained
