White pear, fresh citrus aromas with a hint of sweet white floral and winter melon on the nose. The wine has a fresh but full andsmooth mouth feel but with a crisp minerality finish

Natural fermentation took place in stainless steel until about 13-degree Balling, thereafter the wine was inoculated with a selected yeast strain and fermented in 3rd and 4th fill 300 and 500L French oak barrels for 4 months. The wine was kept on the lees for about 4 weeks after fermentation before being racked.
