WISH Blanc de Blancs

VINTAGE
Winter rainfall was average, giving good soil moisture levels for budburst in early spring. Conditions during spring were dry with minimal frost and no disease pressures allowing for excellent vine canopy development.

WINEMAKING
Selected harvesting ensured the grapes were in excellent condition and possessed the desired fruit flavours. After a cool primary fermentation the blanc de blancs was bottle fermented for 6 months on lees prior to bottling and labeling.

COLOUR
Very pale straw with a distinct green tinge. Light delicate bubbles.

BOUQUET
Fresh lemon, lime and citrus aromas with a slight complex edge.

PALATE
Delightful lemon fruit flavours with light bubbles that fill the mouth.

SUGGESTED FOOD
Enjoy with barbequed crayfish tails with a twist of lemon.

CELLARING
An outstanding wine made to drink young and fresh and will reward with careful cellaring in the medium term.
