The Adelaide Hills experienced another exceptional vintage on the back of one of the best ever in 2021. A wet winter and spring, followed by a dry and mild summer created a long ripening period which led to excellent flavour development whilst maintaining natural acidity.

Harvested by machine in the cool of the morning when the fruit is at its freshest, the grapes are then crushed and lightly pressed with only the free run juice collected. The juice is then allowed to settle for a couple of days, followed by racking and fermentation for 10 – 12 days. The wine spends 3 months in 2- and 3-year-old French oak puncheons for some subtle complexity.

Appearance
Pale straw

Bouquet
Aromas of kiwi fruit, melon and white peach fill the glass.

Palate
The palate is full of crisp, tropical flavours of melon and white peach with a touch of lemon curd in the middle to back palate, accompanied by a hint of natural acidity to keep you coming back for more.

Pair with
Shellfish such as mussels and lobster, chicken or chickpea dishes.

About Saint and Scholar Wines

The Saint & Scholar vineyard makes for a beautiful, spectacular backdrop for our makers. North facing and particularly hilly, you’ll see the fluffiest of fluffy clouds float above as the sun sinks across the valley, making you want to stay long after the day is done.

The hilly terrain means in an area of high rainfall, like the Adelaide Hills, water drains rather well. Together with the beautiful sunlight and naturally cool climate, this makes for a perfect, harmonious environment to ripen quality, consistent vines; soon to be quality, consistent wines.

So even if you can’t stand in the Adelaide Hills and see the beautiful harmony, thanks to the Saint & Scholar and their work together, you can pour a glass and taste it.
