Wine Description
A lovely introduction to Frankland Estate. Pulpy, juicy and unfettered by anything hard or angular, without compromising an indelible refreshment factor. This mid-weight is dialled into the perfect point of ripeness : acidity on the drinkability metre.

Winemaker's Bio
Brian Kent grew up in Perth and has a background in biology, along with a postgraduate degree in Viticulture and Oenology from Lincoln University in Christchurch, New Zealand. His interest in winemaking developed during a holiday while working at Majestic Wine in London, before continuing to travel and complete vintages in different wine regions across the globe. In 2003 Brian completed two vintages: one in Frankland River, and the other in the Russian River, a sub-region of the Sonoma Valley in California. In 2005 he went on to complete another vintage in the Rias Baixas wine region in northwest Spain, where they specialized in Albarinho, a wine with similar characteristics to Riesling.
After 6 years of wine making Brian settled in Frankland, joining the family business at Frankland Estate and is thriving in his new position.
