Description

From the acclaimed, family-owned and pioneering Jackson Estate, this wine is a blend of fruit from various different vineyard sites that are used to create natural complexity. On the nose abundance of ripe white stone fruits and zesty citrus. this follows through in the palate with the same fresh citrus and succulent stone fruit, combined with a well balanced textural lees driven backbone and lovely mineral concentration. A perfectly balanced and crunchy acidity gives the wine lift, presence and poise.

Vineyard

Fruit was sourced from our 3 estate vineyards on the Central Wairau Plain and in the Waihopai sub regions.

Vinification

All blocks were harvested in the early hours of the morning to reduce field heat and enhance flavour. Individually pressed to tank the batches were settled for 72 hours before racking the clear juice off for ferment.

Juice was warmed and then inoculated using only the best cultured yeast strains to enhance and complement the pure fruit character of our vineyard sites. Average fermentation lasted 3 weeks at mid to low temperatures to maximize aroma and flavour. Post fermentation the young wines were aged on light lees for up to 6 months prior to being blended and prepared for bottling late Oct 2023.
