Intense passion fruit and mineral flavours, richly textured with a long and saline lingering finish.
The fruit was pressed immediately to minimise skin contact and to preserve the quality of the juice. After settling, the juice was fermented in stainless steel using a selected yeast strain. Fermentation was carried out at cool temperatures to retain varietal characters and freshness. This parcel was identified by the winemaking team during comprehensive blind tastings as the very best batch of wine produced for the 2017 vintage and therefore bottled as the Saint Clair Wairau Reserve.
