Misha's Vineyard The Starlet Sauvignon Blanc 2020

"Fresh lime and citrus overlay classic varietal notes of passionfruit and grapefruit with a gentle flowing palate combining intense tropical fruits with a lemon zest acidity." Olly Masters (Winemaker)

After a few initial few hours of gentle skin contact the hand-picked fruit was whole bunch pressed to tank for settling. The majority of the free run and pressings juice (68%) was then racked, inoculated and cool fermented to dryness in stainless steel to retain varietal purity. The remaining portion was allowed to undergo spontaneous ferment in older French oak barrels in order to add more texture and complex mineral/flint characters to the wine.
