Description
Full golden colour, this is beautifully salty and fruity with pineapple, pear, ripe apple and some grapefruit. Dense and ripe with nice intensity and a lovely tangy edge from some Flor involvement. Such goodness here.
This is a blend of Pinot Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc and Riesling from organic vineyards in North Canterbury. They are fermented whole bunch. Some is aged in stainless steel, some in amphora, and two barrels are filled and left untopped to develop a layer of flor. The final wine brings together these separate parts. Unfined and unfiltered.
For Hermit Ram wines, in general the fruit comes from tiny vineyards throughout the Canterbury region of New Zealand. Every wine has it’s own story to tell. The vines are naturally farmed and the wines made with the minimal amount of additions. Old techniques are employed. They are wines of depth, complexity, individuality and most importantly drinkability.
