- The complexity that comes with age shines through with lifted honeysuckle and toasty notes on the nose. The rich and honeyed palate is brimming with lemon citrus fruits and finishes with a chalky, mineral freshness.
Made in a reductive style – without contact with oxygen to preserve the fresh, fruity character. The fruit was destemmed, lightly crushed cooled through a heat exchanger and pressed. The must was clarified and fermented with neutral yeasts at 10 to 12°C temperatures, fermenting at 0.5 to 1° Baume per day. The ferment stopped at 2 to 3 grams per litre of residual sugar. The wine did not go through malolactic conversion to retain its crisp character. It was then protein stabilised, cold stabilised, medium filtered, blended and bottled.

Winery | Tahbilk vineyards are grouped along the banks of the Goulburn River, and an anabranch flows through the estate. The water has a tempering influence on the climate. The vines are grown at approximately 134 meters of gently undulating and flat terrain. The soils are sandy loams with ferric oxide content, which varies from very fine sand near the anabranch to denser loams on the plains. The vines planted before 1986 are on ARG rootstocks. They are trained on a single wire trellis with a mixture of head and cordon training and cane pruning. Tahbilk's vines are sustainably cultivated; composting and mulching improve soil health by promoting earthworm activity. Mulching helps to control weeds and conserves water, reducing vine stress. The grapes were hand-picked. |
