A beautifully succulent and morish dessert wine, our Sweet Agnes is a beauty. With intense blossom and citrus peel notes and concentrated stone fruit flavours, our cool climate Nelson terroir enables us to obtain tight refined natural acidity. This acidity contributes a sleek  minerally-acidity backbone to cleanly finish and package this stunning wine.
