White Wine

TASTING NOTES

Les Lys is a north facing vineyard on the top of the hill which results in attractive, fragrant wines with subtle citrus characters. The palate is elegant and refined with notes of freshly squeezed lemons and green apples underscored by an enlivening mineral character. Drink from 2018.Armit Wines

TASTING NOTES

The Gaisberg vineyard is considered one of the best of the entire region owing to its South Easterly exposure. On the nose this starts out with a wave of citrus that becomes increasingly impressive with marzipan and peach. The wine’s voluminous body rapidly releases the fruit, the residual sugar perfectly offsetting its acidity. With an attractively lingering aftertaste, the wine...

TASTING NOTES

Luminous yellow with green reflexes, this wine has a beautifully pronounced bouquet of flint, elderflowers, gooseberries, green pepper, sage and mint. It is pleasantly salty and minerally, fresh on the palate and, with its finely integrated acidity, juicy in the finish.

On the palate, succulent stone fruit characters mingle with green herbs supported by a refreshing mineral character which leads to a long and persistent finish.

TASTING NOTES

In the hands of the Tiefenbrunner estate, Muller Thurgau make something of true beauty. The far northern region of Italy; Alto Adige, is the perfect environment for creating aromatic whites and Tiefenbrunner achieve this with aplomb. This is an immensely complex white offering up peaches, apples and a hint of jasmine tea. A beautiful hazelnut character develops on the palate...

TASTING NOTES

This is the first vintage of this cold pressed Sauvignon made entirely with wild yeasts, lending a greater subtlety to this wine from Hawke’s Bay. On the nose we have grapefruit and lime blossom. On the palate we taste citrus fruit and a hint of complementary bell pepper, showing excellent life and balance.Armit Wines
