Though a late-harvested wine, to retain fruit and freshness irrigation was maintained up until picking date, allowing the plump berries to stay mostly hydrated with only a small portion cane-cut for intensity.

Foot stomped and left for 24 hours at 5C the grapes were then basket-pressed into stainless steel over a prolonged period to extract juice as gently as possible. The wine is then fermented until a desired level of flavour, freshness and sweetness is achieved before being clarified and made ready for bottle.

Tasting Notes

In Italian Fragolino means little strawberry. This unique wine exudes a beautiful sweet, confectioned strawberry perfume with hints of Turkish delight and strawberries and cream. The high residual sugar gives the wine texture and richness across the palate. A perfect late harvest wine to be enjoyed after dinner, with dessert pastries or a cheese board.
