Blank Canvas Gruner Veltliner 750ml

Winemaking
Hand-harvested the Gruner Veltliner on the 5th and 13th of April. At the winery, the grapes were de-stemmed, crushed and gently pressed with a press-cut at 600L/Tonne. The wine was run into large French oak puncheons with the smaller balance to a single stainless steel tank for fermentation. A select yeast strain was used for fermentation, which was completed over 12 days, and the wine then underwent elevage on lees, with no battonage and malolactic fermentation was avoided.

Tasting Notes
Aroma: A bouquet of orange blossom, white pepper, mandarin peel, marzipan, and exotic Asian spice. 
Palate: Rich and full-bodied with a creamy, oily texture. Flavors of orange rind, manuka honey, beeswax, and grapefruit create a complex and unique profile. 

Alc: 13%
