Pale pink with an orange hue.

Glazed cherries & rose petals come to mind.

The palate follows on from the aromas lead with fresh strawberry fruit & strong creamy confection flavours whilst retaining a crisp, fresh & dry finish.

Winemaking Notes
The cool 2016/2017 growing season had plentiful rains throughout removing the need for irrigation. All blocks of Pinot Noir grapes from the Blue Pyrenees Estate vineyard & select Merlot & Shiraz blocks were lightly pressed soon after night harvesting to minimise colour & phenolic extraction. The resulting pale pink juice was fermented to dryness by selected yeast strains in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks. The young wines then underwent malo-lactic fermentation as they were agitated on primary yeast lees for six months to impart the creamy mid palate & naturally stabilise the wine. These techniques create an ideal luncheon wine that matches many foods but should be served chilled.
