Bridlewood’s 2005 Central Coast Reserve Viognier is the result of blending six unique vineyards. The vineyards scattered across the Central Coast were selected by winemaker David Hopkins for their own unique ‘terroir’. The grapes were harvested on different days, each at the peak of ripeness and whole cluster pressed to avoid inclusion of bitter skin components. After initial cold settling, the grapes were racked, fermented and aged in stainless steel.
