originally a fruit farm planted with apples, pears and plums, Furneaux farm was purhased by Charles and Zelda Fox in 2005 after an inter-regional search for Cap Classique-spesific terroir.
In concordance with advice on clone and site selection, 6.3ha of land was planted to 10 blocks of vines.
These soils are well suited to quality wine production.
Charles Fox Reserve Gold CC
This CC is pale gold in colour, clear, brilliant with a fine quick consistent mousse.
Honeyed biscuit, yeasty lees lending a touch of fresh dough. Traces of tropical fruits, peach and papaya - the fruits meld with fresh bread aromas, arriving at an alluring introduction.
On the palate, dry, clean, fresh with a medium plus intensity. The fruit is prominent, topicals follow through but well balanced by a vibrant acidity.
A generous, long lingering very satisfying finish.
