Tasting notes
Brilliant clear colour with green hues. Intense aromas of tropical fruit salad, zesty lime, papaya and passion fruit. On the palate, notes of pineapple and papaya come through strongly with a zesty lime finish and great balance.
Vinification
At the cellar the grapes are de-stemmed and the free run juice separated from the skins, left overnight to settle and then racked to the fermentation tank. There it is fermented at 15°C, which takes between 14 and 23 days. After fermentation, the wine is racked from its primary lees. During bottling the wine is impregnated with carbon dioxide creating the magical fine sparkle.
Ageing
No ageing.
Food pairing
As an aperitif or with seafood salads, smoked salmon, sushi and other raw fish dishes.
