A no rules blend of Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, and Colombar. Resulting in a fascinating barrel matured white blend.
My dream was to create a white blend to partner the Vitruvian. The first name that came to mind was “New Baby”. I wrote this on the barrels and so the first vintage was born. I have kept the blend ratio similar through the different vintages to allow the vintage to show its identity in the wine. This vintage is without Chardonnay and Semillon in the blend.
All our best old vine white cultivars are used in the blend. The Chenin was planted in 1974 & 1978, Sauvignon Blanc 1983 and Colombar 1988. Each cultivar brings its own unique personality to the blend that ultimately makes this wine incredibly complex and fascinating.
Food Pairing: Delicate and rich at the same time this is a wine that can be enjoyed on its own and with something delicious from the ocean. Scallops for sure!
