Escourt and Glen Rosa
A light salmon pink colour. Classic aromas of green apple, lime and citrus abound with subtle raspberry flavours; these following through to a lively dry palate with a lingering fresh, crisp aftertaste.
Grapes from two prime vineyard blocks were hand harvested at 18 - 29 degrees Balling into small (9kg) crates. After and sorting, the grapes were whole bunch pressed and fermented in stainless steel tanks at 14degrees Celcius. Secondary fermentation took place in the bottle. The wine spent 18 months on the lees before it was degorged.
Enjoy now or within 4 years of harvest. Serve with a gourmet breakfast or on its own as a celebratory apperitif.
