Analytical data
Vinification
After gentle pressing, all parcels were fermented separately either in seasoned French oak Cuvees or Stainless steel and left on lees whilst undergoing full malolactic fermentation. Assemblage of the final blend consists of strength and intensity of Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier combined with the elegant freshness from Chardonnay grapes, which were all hand-picked from the best New Zealand terroirs. The use of carefully selected reserve wines and extended lees ageing of more than 20 months gives the wine complexity and an intensity.
Maturation
Minimum 20 months on lees
