BUSINESSCLASS
New Release wine with the 2023 currently poured on-board Cathay Pacific Business Class.
Vineyard: This wine is sourced from the Lower Tintara Vineyard in Blewitt Springs. This vineyard was originally planted by Thomas Hardy in the 1880’s and is still owned by 5th generation members of the Hardy family.
Soils: Deep sandy soils from the Holocene era (11,600yrs old)
Harvest Date: 14 February 2024
Winemaking: The grapes were harvested at night to retain fruit freshness. Grapes were destemmed and pressed immediately. Juice was then transferred directly to seasoned French oak barrels for fermentation followed by partial malolactic fermentation for added complexity. The wine remained in barrel for 3 months before bottling.
Nose: The nose has a hint of lifted stonefruit and melon.
Palate: The palate is a lovely balance of rich, creamy white peach fruit and fresh citrus acid. Subtle brioche notes from the oak influence complement the mid palate with a crisp, dry finish.
Cellaring: Drink now to 2028.
