A textural white with notes of ripe pear and apple alongside light honey and herbal notes. Flavoursome and rich fruit balanced by fine acid.
Nerd Notes
Grown at Freeman's Altura Vineyard in the Hilltops region of NSW, at approximately 560m elevation on decomposed granite soils. Predominantly Furmint with a small addition of Hárslevelű, a traditional Hungarian grape.
The grapes are destemmed and lightly pressed within an hour of harvesting, then fermented in stainless steel. Gentle lees stirring, while selected parcels mature in a combination of new and seasoned oak barrels before blending, aparently.
