Tangy, supple, pristine. Located in Summerland, Lunessence (where Luna=Moon + Essence) is a biodynamic estate. There are no pesticides or herbicides used in their vineyards with a focus on natural wines; they ideally use only native yeast, no, or minimal fining (only bentonite and time), and very light or no filtration at all.
This dry Alsatian Gentil inspired white blend (Gewurztraminer, Pinot Blanc and Riesling) comes from a single vineyard on the winery's estate and suggets tangy green apples and starfruit, peaches, lemon-lime, spring flowers and clay. It has a pristine character, is supple on the tongue and is dominated by flavours of citrus. The finish is mouthwatering and has slight phenolic texture.
