A classic Wairau Valley style showcasing the ripe fruit characters found in the Valley. The nose overflows with pungent passionfruit, grapefruit and ripe gooseberry characters. The palate is powerful, possessing an explosive array of ripe gooseberry and tropical flavours complemented by crisp acidity and a long finish.
