Description:
Volume : 750ml , ABV : 13.8%
Two clones, multiple trellis systems, dry grown, low-yielding, 32yo vines, and a small portion fermented/matured for 10 months in neutral oak all contribute to the wine's layered complexity. Citrus, white stone fruit and apple are cocooned in a film of vibrant acidity.
The wine leaps out of the glass with perfumed white citrus florals, spice and grapefruit. A real generosity and poise on the palate. Ripe juicy limes upfront, with a crisp acidity that carries the fruit all the way into a long saline, mineral finish. Elegant yet powerful, it builds layers in the mouth as the wine opens up. Consistent with the now well-established Isolation Ridge style this wine reflects both the low-yielding, dry growing conditions of this site. The balance of pristine fruit flavours and defining acidity result in an exceptional wine that can be enjoyed now or cellared with the confidence as it will continue to develop further complexity for many years to come. A wet spring provided good early vine growth, a dry summer with some minor rain events in January and early February kept the dry grown vines in optimal health.
