Description
A superb collection of premium Dicey Central Otago wines that perfectly capture the essence of their terroir.
The elements needed to craft a Dicey wine are the vineyard plus heat, rain, wind. The precise amounts of each vary from year to year. The grapes endure the fury of nature and then we harvest them by hand. Swansong. Black Rabbit. Inlet. Each vineyard has its own essence. Winemakers take the grapes that hold this essence and make single vineyard wines. Last of all, they choose a small number of barrels from each vineyard that are their truest expression and create a composition. An ode to the year. It’s simple. They bottle time.
Collection includes:
1 x Dicey Bannockburn Central Otago Chenin Blanc 2020
