Our Seaview Vineyard in the Awatere Valley is exposed to some of the toughest growing conditions in Marlborough; high sunshine and wind, cool nights and low rainfall which produces a smaller, thicker-skinned berry with intense fruit flavours. The Albariño vines were planted in 2019 atop the Seaview cliffs on a north-facing slope. The soil is predominantly windblown loess, bringing mineral characteristics to this wine.
