Fresh, vibrant and floral with succulent citrus notes, the 2022 Illumination offers textured weight with juicy yellow apple, wax melon and citrus blossom notes. The palate surprises and delights with a fresh and lively mouthfeel that offers energetic acidity with even ripeness. This white blend will remain elegant for years to come.

We take a fine-tuned approach in the making of Illumination, creating a wine with aromatic expression and a compelling texture, both bright and savory. The grapes are hand harvested and gently whole-cluster pressed before the juice is fermented with native yeast
in a variety of vessels. French oak barrels bring depth and a hint of oak spice and acacia barrels add a complex floral spice on the nose. Egg-shaped concrete fermenters add richness to the palate while retaining fresh aromas and stainless-steel barrels maintain the
purity of the fruit. Semillon adds a round mouthfeel to complement the vibrant Sauvignon Blanc. Lees stirring enhances weight and complexity.
