TASTING NOTE This wine has a crisp tropical fruit and pineapple flavour and is soft and round with a clean zesty finish. WINEMAKERS NOTES Mother Nature chose to smile on the unique high altitude wine country of Mendoza, making the 2002 harvest perhaps the best in the last ten years. The white grapes were the first to arrive, having been given the opportunity to achieve maximum ripeness. The fruit was full of intense aromatics, rich varietal fruit flavours and well-balanced acidity.
