Vineyard

Vineyard: Seaview Vineyard | Aspect: North facing slope | Soil: Windblown loess Elevation: 160m | Distance from sea: 4500mVintage 2022 was an exciting classic Marlborough harvest. A warm Spring secured good fruit set throughout the region. Some challenging weather in February was rewarded with clear warm days throughout harvest. The cool crisp nights and warm days in March retained vibrant acidity while allowing flavours to develop fully. A slow and steady ripening resulted in beautifully intense and structured wines. The resulting wine is showing the wonderful hallmarks that our Marlborough vineyards are known for – highly concentrated fruit flavours, with underlying purity and minerality.

Vinification
