Ghost Corner Wild Ferment Sauvignon Blanc 2023

The nose is captivating with lemon curd and grapefruit marmalade taking centre stage. The palate is forthcoming with a kaleidoscope of flavours including crème brûlée, slight honeyed notes and a lemon/lime citrus freshness.

Grapes are hand-harvested in the early morning at 23.5°C. A portion of the grapes is whole-bunch pressed; the rest goes through the destemmer and is crushed for skin contact. After one day of settling, the juice is transferred into 400l French oak barrels where natural fermentation takes place over the next 40 to 60 days at 13°C. Once fermentation is completed, the wine is matured in the barrels for up to 10 months with a monthly bâtonnage of the lees.
