The final vintage ever.

Ginger, spice, lychee nut, and rose petals linger on the finish.

WINE MAKING
The vines were hand-netted to allow for a longer hang-time and were the last white grapes to be harvested from the Thirty Bench Vineyard; October 14. After careful selection of the finest grapes, they were cold soaked for greater extraction of terpenes and other flavours and aromas, then the juice was fermented in a concrete egg before being run to neutral French oak barrels (6 months) for added richness and mouthfeel.
