A delicate version of Malbec in a lively and fresh style.

Made from Malbec grapes from the farm the wine is light salmon pink in colour with delicate aromas of crushed strawberries, flower petals and underlying white ruffles. It finishes with a subtle freshness of pomegranates with a stylish zesty silkiness.
Picked by hand from our 0.8ha Malbec block on two days in January and February at different ripeness levels. Whole bunch pressings at incremental pressure levels to slowly extract colour and clean juice which was fermented separately at 13-16°C to obtain lovely vibrant aromas. Extended lees contact for three months after which the wine was settled clear and stabilized. Bottled in May 2019

This Blanc de Noir pairs well with turkey, cranberries, or a salad with pomegranates, candied nuts, and goat cheese
