Production
The grapes for the 2018 Treana Blanc were whole-cluster pressed and the juice was chilled to 35ºC to allow the solids to settle. Once settled, the juice was transferred to French oak barrels for fermentation, of which h50% were twice used, 25% were once used and 25% were neutral. The wine aged on its lees for nearly sixteen months before being blended in February of 2020. The blend aged together for another three months in 100% new French Oak until bottling in June of 2020.

Tasting notes
Treana Blanc is a stunning full bodied new world Rhône blend with aromas of orange blossom, honey, peach nectar and a hint of tropical passion fruit. All of those aromas continue on the palate and evolve into rich roasted pineapple, dried apricot with notes of honeysuckle and elderflower. The finish is long and weighted with a creamy texture that is brightened with a touch of acid. This wine is crafted to be enjoyed with food and is very versatile.
Food match
We suggest a range of dishes from spicy curry to pan roasted salmon or poached lobster
