2025 10X Field Blend

2025 10X Field Blend
A new wine in the 10X range. A blend of Riesling, Fiano, Friulano and Gewürztraminer from two of our ‘down the hill’ vineyards. Lush gooseberry, pink musk and lychee are alluring and glide gracefully into a green peppercorn, lime and spiced palate. An aromatic, refreshing and enticing wine with a soft saline nature and fine edge.

Other Notes
The 2025 vintage was magnificent. Moderate warm days, cool nights and dry conditions throughout the Summer and Autumn provided ideal ripening conditions. Healthy and balanced canopies across all sites produced wonderful flavours and acidity and excellent fruit quality.

Winemaker Notes
Handpicked fruit was whole bunch pressed to a combination of stainless steel and concrete vessels before being racked to tank, including the light lees.
A cooler wild fermentation was preferred for this wine to preserve fresh primary fruit characters and natural acidity while using the lees to create some added layers of complexity. Once individual parcels were blended, the wine was lightly fined and filtered before bottling.
