This wine has an appealing, rich nose with rose petal and subtle tropical fruit/lychee characters. The palate is persistent, full and rich, with good length and structure. Subtle tropical fruit flavours combine with a lovely silkiness and a refreshing, clean finish. Ideal with sushi, shellfish, Asian style cuisine or rich cheeses. A rare variety with the ability to complement an unusually wide food range.

| Vineyard_Info | Bream Creek Vineyard is planted on a north-east ridge above Marion Bay on the edge of the Tasman Sea. This gently sloping site, coastal location and maritime influence, result in growing conditions that are characterised by long mild seasons to create premium fruit quality. The vineyard enjoys a cool frost free spring, long sunny summer days with sea breezes and an extended autumn ripening period. Surrounded by neighbouring forest and windbreaks, the vineyard is nicely sheltered from strong and cold winds producing crisp cool climate wines. Soils are deep and range from brown to black clay loams with a little small stone on the higher ground. Particular attention has been made to match varieties to the different range of soil types within the vineyard to produce premium boutique wines. The site features a large dam which is used sparingly for trickle irrigation. All vines are vertical-shoot positioned and trained. They are also hand pruned and picked. Crop yields are very modest with both small berries and quite small bunches. This allows low yields of exceptional cool climate fruit with enhanced varietal characters - perfect for winemaking and the production of truly premium cool climate boutique wines.
