"Lovely primary fruit notes of apricots, sherbert, orange citrus, and peaches and cream. Citrus drives through the palate and finishes with lemon pith and rind. A vibrant and fresh aperitive style of wine. The youthful freshness on release is so delicious and should be enjoyed young. Coming into the warmer months this wine is best paired with oysters, smoked salmon and a cheese board.
Vintage 2024 began with a very wet spring. Rain and cool temperatures were the theme up to Christmas. The rain slowed down in January and was followed by very warm weather across February. The warmer end to vintage promoted intense stone fruit characters in the finished product. The fruit was picked on the 12th of March from our Sweeney Block at Sugarloaf Creek Vineyard.
With premium shiraz sourced from our Sugarloaf Creek Vineyard in Great Western, our new Blanc de Noir is picked at the start of the ripening period. A section of the vine foliage is removed to let the sun work its magic on the grapes. By harvesting the grapes earlier than we would for a red wine, we retain higher natural acidity essential for a bubbly white. Next, we handpick the grapes and gently press them to extract the juice, without any colour from the red wine skins. Finally, the wine is turned into a cuvee and is ready for your enjoyment. Treat yourself to this exquisite Blanc de Noir – guaranteed to delight your taste buds." - Best's
