Winemaking
This wine is sourced principally from the Wilyabrup subregion of the Margaret River, with 18% of the Sauvignon Blanc from a vineyard in Karridale, which introduces some tropical fruit and heightened elegance to the palate. Hand-picked in the cool of the morning, it was gently destemmed and pressed before being cold-set for three days. Once clear, the juices were racked and inoculated, then fermented gently at 13–14°C for two weeks. Once dry, the wine was racked off gross lees and left on light, fluffy lees before being fined, stabilized, filtered, and bottled.
Food Pairing
