Grape

Semillon
Riesling

Tasting Note

Aromas of peaches, mandarin peel and ruby grapefruit. The palate leads with great minerality and tension. You can feel the natural acidity of Riesling and the texture from the Semillon. Loads of citrus tang, think grapefruit pith and brown lime. Lovely texture and phenolic grip.This wine has beautiful drinkability straight off the bat. Slightly hazy from a no fining - no filtration philosophy, this haze will continue to sediment at the bottom of the bottle. Shake it up and drink it cloudy, or decant by pouring each glass slowly - its your call. Served best at about 14 deg, its a perfect aperitif. Watch this wine develop over the next few years.

Before starting Whistler, Martin oversaw the viticulture program for the iconic Penfolds brand and was fortunate enough to obtain cuttings from the famous Penfolds ‘Grange’ vineyards, which were the 1st plantings on the estate in 1994. Now, son Sam Pfeiffer, has taken ownership of the family business. With over 20 years in the wine industry, Sam has had his hand at everything from making wine all around the world to his particular expertise, selling it.
