Hugh Crighton

Viticulture

Vineyard selection for this wine was based on the potential of each site to produce wines which show tropical fruit flavours and generosity.

Vinification

The fruit was gently pressed and the juice cool-fermented to retain as much flavour and aroma as possible. Lees ageing of some components prior to bottling has developed mid-palate weight adding to the wine’s intense fruit characters.
