Hope Estate Verdelho

Notes - Pale to light straw colour with light green tinge. Notes of fresh herb complement lifted tropical fruit and floral tones. Tropical fruit salad with the creamy texture of lychees (imparted by the barrel fermentation) is the foundation of this intriguing wine. The palate is lifted and finishes cleanly with lengthy lime nuances. Use of 5% American oak has created a warmth and length to our Verdelho. Traditional tank fermentation has encouraged the development of the tropical fruit flavours. The sweet fruit of our Verdelho cuts through right through spicy heat. It is a great food match with oriental noodles, fruity pork dishes, and seafood. Michael Hope’s Notes - "With our Verdelho we have ensured tropical fruit characters consistent with the varietal Verdelho yet at the same time creating complexity with the subtle use of American oak and delicate balancing to obtain a crisp clean finish."
