Sourced from the elevated Butcher’s Hill Vineyard, the fruit benefits from long, cool ripening conditions that preserve piercing natural acidity while allowing flavours to develop remarkable purity. The canes were cut late in the season to naturally dehydrate the grapes on the vine, intensifying sugars, aromatics, and phenolic texture without relying on botrytis. Hand-picking ensures only the cleanest, most flavour-rich bunches are selected, highlighting Pooley’s meticulous approach to sweet-wine production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the winery, the juice undergoes a unique multi-stage pressing and skin-contact process that further amplifies concentration and depth. The wine is then matured on fine lees for several months, adding subtle weight and roundness while maintaining tension and drive. The 2024 release is known for its luminous clarity, combining sweetness with refreshing acidity, resulting in a dessert style that is expressive yet elegantly restrained. It captures the cool-climate hallmark of Pooley: wines built on balance, finesse, and vineyard expression rather than overt richness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"200\" data-end=\"893\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1730\" data-end=\"1733\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1737\" data-end=\"1740\"\u003e– Floral and mineral lift\u003cbr data-start=\"1765\" data-end=\"1768\"\u003eAromas of lemon blossom, kaffir lime, mandarin oil and crushed slate with delicate white rose and green apple.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1880\" data-end=\"2064\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1886\" data-end=\"1889\"\u003e– Focused and vibrant\u003cbr data-start=\"1910\" data-end=\"1913\"\u003ePure lime juice intensity drives the palate, layered with citrus, white peach and subtle spice.
