Cottage Block is the affectionate term our winemakers bestow on special rows of vines in a vineyard that produce the most outstanding fruit. 

Only in the very best years will the winemaker personally select the grapes for this range, before gently crafting them into limited edition wines of exceptional quality. 

DESCRIPTION
Vintage: 2008
Colour: Pale straw
Aromas: Honeyed quince, pear essence and crème brulée
Palate: Richly-textured, displaying complex citrus, stone fruit and spice characters with a finely-balanced acidity that also renders this wine an appealing aperitif

CELLARING
Can be enjoyed now and will develop more complex honeyed characters over the next 3-5 years.

Warren Barton - Dominion Post (19 January 2008)
