The Wine:
Cooinda Vale Vineyard was established in 1985 by Pooley’s founders, Margaret and Dennis Pooley. Sitting between 80-100m above sea level, the vineyard is tucked away in a nook of hills North of Campania making it much more protected from prevailing weather conditions.
Fruit was hand-picked and cooled overnight to 5 degrees. The fruit was whole bunched pressed the following day and transferred to stainless steel for fermentation. Maturation on fine lees for 5 months prior to bottling.
Generous aromas of citrus oil, honey blossom and orange zest. The palate is refined and elegant with notes of grapefruit pith, cumquat and lime. Strong acid is persistent with a long and waxy finish.
