Heritage Heroes The Young Airhawk
This wooded wine, made from Sauvignon blanc grapes sourced from selected cool-climate vineyards, pays homage to Johann and Ilse Graue’s son, Arnold, who was renowned for his winemaking prowess and sense of adventure. A layered bouquet opens onto a crisp, zesty palate with a creamy texture from time spent on the lees (residual yeast). Enjoy with fresh seafood.
COLOUR Clear, light green.
BOUQUET Layers of intense green fig and lime aromas with tropical undertones and a hint of spice.
PALATE A fresh, crisp and elegant wine with notes of asparagus, minerality, lime and a creamy texture.
