Nose

Pungent and enticing floral aromas. Elegant and pretty, with hinted complexity of fruit and integrated oak.

Palate

Bright fruit flavours of green apples and citrus lead the way, with honeydew and rockmelon adding some depth. The French oak maturation adds texture with integrated spice and buttery oak nuances. Pure, clean and precise with lots to give.

Growing Conditions

Churchview pride themselves on cultivating, crafting and cherishing the land, the grapes and the wine. Since the beginning, Churchview has practiced and implemented organic farming strategies, gaining their Certified Organic qualification in 2020. Churchview avoid the use of toxic chemicals in order to maintain healthy soils, which in turn, allows the wines to produce pure, quality fruit.

Harvest

The 2020 vintage was one of the earliest on record, with many done before they might've even started. The fruit was handpicked in the early hours of the morning, before being transported to the winery for processing. Some intense flavours came out of the white varieties with some powerful wines.

Winemaking

Gently pressed, prior to racking and cool wild fermentation in a stainless steel vessel. Light sulphur addition post fermentation then allowed the juice to settle naturally for clarification.

Aging

After fermentation was complete, the wine was then racked into one and two year old French oak for maturation and minimal oak influence.

Appearance

Bright straw.
