Winemaker notes:
Harvested on 13th April and hand-made at CRFT Carey Gully winery. Single vineyard wine.

Whole-bunch pressed to tank to begin wild fermentation, then transferred into older seasoned (neutral) French barriques for barrel fermentation on full solids. 100% wild yeast ferment. Full wild MLF. Occasional lees stirring. 9 weeks in oak. Bottled July 2023. Vegan friendly.

If there is one reason why we tough-out the cold climate at Arranmore, well this is it! Being an East / South facing slope on top off a breezy hill it can feel relentlessly cold. 

They say good art is the perfect combination of paint and pain. As with good wine, a little bit of suffering is character building. And, well, there's plenty of character to unpack from this green bottle of delights!

In the glass it glistens like an emerald. The nose greets you with South East Asian flavours of kafir lime, coriander and mangosteen.   

The palate shows wet slate minerality like a signature of our Domaine. The palate is rich and full with a powdery / crunchy, savory / sweet texture like a green papaya.
