The Natural State Pied Du Cuve 2022
White Wine

5 Stars Excellent. Cam Douglas MS – he said
“Dry, crisp, highly textured with a backbone of acidity accentuating the flavours of citrus fruits and apples, more wild fruits and flowers and a chalky textured mineral complexity. Well made, taut and youthful, best drinking from late 2024 through 2030.”
Think Fume' Blanc with racy notes. Fresh and vibrant.
".. It is a wine that takes the characters of the vineyard and brings them to life creating new dimensions and complexity. Our 2022 pied de cuve is fresh, fruity and full of texture, citrus fruit from start to finish with glimpses of wild flowers. Acidity and texture are the back bone to this autumn meets spring wine." Churton, the makers.
The pied de cuve fruit is hand-picked, whole bunch pressed and left to ferment in old 500l puncheons... The wine is then left on its lees for 9-12 months and racked before bottling with no fining nor filtering.
