Description

Hillersden is a family owned vineyard crafting world class wines on the frontier of Marlborough, New Zealand. The name Hillersden was taken from the land itself, a settlers’ village forgotten by time. Today, Hillersden is the story of the strength and resilience of one family creating a new future for a community and a new legacy for the modern wine lover. Hillersden is dedicated to crafting single estate wines to the highest of environmental standards where technology and nature come together in a daring pursuit to see agriculture thrive in even the most rugged of terrain.

This wine has typical notes of grapefruit, passionfruit, fresh cut herbs. This pairs well with fresh seafood, grilled veggies, creamy goat cheese. 6% of the harvest was pressed into older French oak barrels. The remainder of the grapes were pressed into stainless steel tanks where the juice spent three weeks fermenting at cool temperatures.
