2023 Twenty70 White Blend
Sustainable & vegan friendly
Hunter Valley, NSW
A golden straw hue as a result of the extended skin contact. This wine has lemon myrtle and red apple notes on the nose, with refreshing sappy phenolics on the palate. Honeysuckle and apple blossom abound, with a crunchy sea spray acidity driving through the length of the wine. Made for drinking chilled on a hot Summer’s day with fresh prawns and fish and chips straight out of the butcher’s paper.
Our Twenty70 range is built with sustainability at its heart, made from Sustainable Wine Growing (SWA) certified vineyards in our certified SWA winery. This wine is vegan friendly, made with minimal sulphur additions.

Wine Profile
Winemaker Comments
Our first vintage as the owners of the Oakey Creek vineyard meant that we had more grapes to play with from this great site. This field blend white has been made in the same style as a red wine,
fermented on skins for 7 days. It is a blend of the three white
varieties grown on Oakey Creek –Verdelho, Semillon and
Chardonnay. All were picked at the same time and fermented
together, with each variety helping the other for a blend of acidity, ripeness, and flavour.
Food Pairing
Pair with fresh fish and chips, or your favourite cheese board
selection.
Production
The earliest free run juice was then held in tank, and the heavier pressings in old French oak puncheons (500L) without any sulphur additions. The tank and barrel components were blended, with a minimal sulphur addition prior to bottling.
Drink
Drinking very well now or over the short term.
