Vineyard

Plenty of sunshine, moderate temperatures and strong diurnal variation are the keys to Marlborough’s piercing fruit intensity and strong varietal expression, keeping acid levels high over long ripening times. The eastern coastal aspect bestows cooling sea breezes and protective mountains give relief from extreme rain and wind.

Vinification

The juice was pressed off immediately following harvesting to minimize skin contact and juice deterioration. After settling, the juice was fermented using a selected yeast strain in stainless steel at cool temperatures to retain fruit flavour and freshness.
