"This is charming and attractively lifted on the nose showing raspberry, nectarine, watermelon and floral notes with a hint of spicy overtone. The palate displays juicy fruit flavours and fine texture well supported by vibrant mouthfeel, finishing lingering and delightfully crisp" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jul 2020

Vibrant red berry fruits with a distinct stone fruit layer. Delicate notes of rose petal, cinnamon and cracked pepper. Mouth filling and dry, with an energetic acid balance. Peach and nectarine flavours with classic cherry and strawberry notes. Best in its vibrant youth, expect the fruit intensity to mellow over the next 3 years to more complex notes. Confidently cellar through to 2024.

Waihopai Valley - alluvial stony silt loams,very well drained, and clay/loess over gravel. Wairau Valley – shallow depth of stony silt loams over gravel, very well drained. Vertical shoot positioning, shoot and bunch thinning to restrict yield.

Harvested over 5 separate picks, with 4 by hand the grapes were gently pressed and the juice left to settle clear before fermentation. A mix of old oak barriques, a large oak cask, and stainless steel tanks were used to ferment the separate blocks. A small percentage of Malbec and Syrah was included in the blend, with bottling 3 months after harvest.
