Discover the Zesty Elixir: Lemon Vodka Unveiled

Indulging in the world of spirits, one cannot help but marvel at the exquisite blend of flavours that ignite the senses. Among these delightful concoctions, lemon vodka stands out as a zesty elixir that has garnered an ever-growing fan base. Renowned for its refreshing taste and versatility, lemon vodka has found its place in the hearts of both seasoned connoisseurs and casual enthusiasts alike.

The Essence of Lemon Vodka:

Lemon vodka is a flavored variant of the classic clear spirit, vodka. It undergoes a meticulous infusion process, combining notes of dry aniseed/rye spice from barley, with the zesty spritz of candied lemon. The result is a delightful fusion of the vodka's purity and the invigorating essence of lemon scented gum, producing a libation that captures the spirit of summer in every sip.

A Symphony of Flavors:

The allure of lemon vodka lies in its multifaceted flavour profile. As you raise the glass to your lips, you're greeted with an invigorating burst of citrus that enlivens the palate. The tangy notes of lemon intermingle seamlessly with the vodka's smoothness, striking a perfect balance between sweet and sour.

Versatility in Mixology:

One of the key reasons behind lemon vodka's soaring popularity is its remarkable versatility in mixology. Its zesty character serves as an excellent base for a plethora of cocktails, ranging from the classic Lemon Drop Martini to the ever-popular Vodka Sour. When paired with a medley of fresh fruits or herb-infused syrups, lemon vodka transforms into a symphony of flavours that tantalize taste buds and leave a lasting impression.

A Sip of Refreshment:

Lemon vodka is not only favoured in cocktails but also enjoyed on its own. Neat or on the rocks, this delightful spirit offers a crisp and revitalizing experience that is unparalleled. It serves as the perfect companion during hot summer days, offering a cooling respite that awakens the senses and adds a touch of sunshine to any gathering.

Savor the Experience:

In conclusion, lemon vodka stands as a testament to the innovation and creativity that the world of spirits continues to embrace. With its zesty and invigorating essence, this delightful elixir caters to the diverse palates of spirit enthusiasts and cocktail aficionados. Whether sipped neat, enjoyed in a cocktail, or infused into culinary delights, lemon vodka promises a truly unforgettable experience. So, raise your glass, savor the citrusy notes, and embark on a journey of pure refreshment with every sip of this zesty elixir. Saluti!

Tasting Notes

Our 2022 Estate Chardonnay has complex aromas of lemon, lime, pear, bees wax and nutty notes. Soft grapefruit freshness balances out the integrated oak. The citrus characters can also be seen on the palate which has great concentration yet maintains an elegance with a terrific line of acid which is in balance with classic chardonnay varietal characters. Gentle texture sits into the fruit profile adding further complexity without losing the line of elegance in this wine.



Process

Harvested by hand and machine in the last week of February to the end of the first week of March 2022. Block 1 was hand picked over a two week period and whole bunch pressed to tank. Chilled and settled for 2 days then racked to oak including solids. Approximately 40% went through malolactic fermentation. To add some phenolic texture Block 5 was machine harvest and pressed out and settled for 48 hours before racking to oak taking all the light coloured solids.
