Certified organic, the 2019 vintage (4.5*) was estate-grown at Rapaura and handled in a mix of stainless steel tanks (70 per cent) and seasoned oak barrels (30 per cent). Lees-aged for eight months, it is a pale gold, fleshy wine, with generous, ripe, stonefruit flavours, showing good complexity, balanced acidity and a dry (2.5 grams/litre of residual sugar) finish. Best drinking mid-2022+.
