The grapes for this wine were sourced from top terrace of the Askerne vineyard. Selectively handpicked to achieve the perfect balance between clean bunches of late season ripe fruit and a component of medium noble botrytis infection. The wine was fermented in tank and then aged on light lees for 14 months prior to finishing and bottling.
