This wine has been a long labour of love for Gareth and Rainbo Belton.
It's been one of those wines that's been hard to nail down. Birds, rain, something always foiling their plans at the last moment before picking... but thankfully this year, it all came together!
Taking bright and bouncy fruit from the Scary Gully vineyard, they get pressed as whole clusters and left to settle until being racked to do their thing in terracotta eggs for nine months.
It's right in the zone. Enough ripeness, enough acidity to balance out the residual sugar, enough grippy, powdery mouthfeel to lend some interest and framework to the wine.
