- Candied strawberry and cranberry fruits are enhanced by spiced pear and a refreshing finish, making it dry and easy to drink. Watermelon blush with a medley of fresh strawberry and raspberry aromas with a hint of vanilla cream. It is refreshing and plush on the palate, with ripe orchard fruits, juicy pear, red berries and just a hint of cinnamon spice.
The fruit was harvested in the cool of the night in order to retain freshness and capture the fruit flavours. The grapes spent only a few hours on skins to extract the delicate flavour, aroma and colour and were then carefully pressed. After settling, the juice was fermented in 100% stainless steel tanks at cool temperatures to retain the pure fruit flavours and freshness. The wine was then stabilised and prepared for bottling.

Winery | In 2001, Saint Clair introduced a grading system for each vineyard, marking them out of 10 for quality each year. This provides valuable information regarding which vineyards provide the best fruit and which varieties produce the best quality within each vineyard. The grading system is also used extensively as a management tool for identifying and improving best vineyard practices. The vineyards are carefully managed, using a sustainable approach with minimal vineyard sprays, maintaining an open canopy with good light and airflow, leaf plucking, fruit and shoot thinning and selection. |
