Shoreline More Information

A wine for seafood; well-balanced and refreshing with complex layers. This beautiful wine has enticing notes of lemon and lime and delicate herbaceous tones.

WINEMAKING NOTES

The Shoreline is a fresh blend dominated by Bacchus and Chardonnay with each of the parcels fermented separately. Cool fermentation in 100% stainless steel. Upon completion, the different vats were assessed for potential and characteristics, then blended together in the optimum proportions. The resulting Shoreline blend was aged for several weeks on fine lees to improve structure & mouth-feel, before being bottled at the end of March 2020 to preserve its freshness.
