Winemaking:

The 2019 Estate Vidal, Frank’s Corner, was harvested for optimal flavour and balance of acidity. We hand harvested to protect the integrity of the fruit
and whole cluster pressed in our gentle bladder press. Juice selection was made at the press pan to ensure there was not any
over extraction of phenolic flavours from the grape skins. It was cold settled after pressing and then racked into stainless steel for a long,
slow fermentation at cool temperatures, to enhance aromatics and preserve fruitiness. The alcoholic fermentation was stopped when
the fruit profile was ideal and a balanced expression was achieved. Our 2019 Vidal was then protein stabilized and filtered
before bottling.

 

Appearance:

Pale straw with a clear hue.

Aroma:

A bouquet of citrus notes jump from the glass. Lemon curd, key lime, pineapple and grapefruit rind. A very concentrated and
intense bouquet of sweet ripe fruit lift out of the glass with underlying notes of lemongrass, honey and herbs.

Palate:

Sweet, ripe fruits and fresh acidity are balanced on the palate. A combination of citrus fruits and tropical fruits mirror the aromatics
on the palate. Lemon curd, pineapple, granny smith apple and lime zest are on the forefront. A fresh backbone of acidity compliments the
fruitiness and concentration in flavour. Our Frank’s Corner Vidal has a lighter-weight and medium-length finish with flavours of
grapefruit and honeydew melon. An easy drinking, fresh and crisp wine that packs a punch of fruit flavours with a balanced
refreshing finish. Frank’s Corner Vidal is the perfect wine for patios and pairs well with a variety of Mediterranean style food and bbq.
