The palate is layered with ginger, honeycomb, and tropical jackfruit, carried by dancing acidity. Complex and highly engaging, it finishes long and uplifting, leaving a lasting impression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/9211\/5773\/files\/Scale_-_Dry.png?v=1773371321\" alt=\"Scale_-_Dry\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJackson’s Block is home to some of the first vines planted in Banncockburn including ten rows of 1991 planted, own rooted Gewurztraminer. Miro’s Block Riesling was planted in 1995. These mature, own rooted vines produce fruit possessing old vine concentration and finesse. Pinot Gris from the Estate adds to the delicious fruit and complexity of the completed blend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2024 vintage in Bannockburn started with favourable spring conditions, leading to a normal crop set. El Niño brought dry weather from mid-November to February, along with high winds across Central Otago, however Terra Sancta's sheltered sites fared well. A 24 January frost caused no major damage. A very dry summer, ended by welcome rain on 21 February, along with cooler nights, supported steady ripening with harvest beginning on 26 March. Despite the challenges, our mature vines produced high-quality fruit, reflected in the vibrant flavour and complexity of this field blend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGewurztraminer from Jackson’s Block was hand harvested and destemmed before gentle pressing and settling overnight. A portion was racked to a small stainless steel tank for cool fermentation with the balance fermented at warmer temperatures in a 500 litre French barrel. The Miro’s Riesling was hand harvested 2 weeks later and fermented in a small steel tank. The Gewurztraminer and the Miro’s Riesling were blended along with Estate Pinot Gris in July and left to harmonise before bottling on 30 October 2024 at Terra Sancta.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFood Pairing: Vietnamese rice paper rolls with mango and herbs or Thai green curry with market fish.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Colab","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52019331006781,"sku":"TSFB24","price":443.88,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/9211\/5773\/files\/TerraSanctaEstateMiro_sOldVineCentralOtagoFieldBlendNV.jpg?v=1784774873","url":"https:\/\/www.blackmarket.co.nz\/products\/terra-sancta-estate-miros-old-vine-central-otago-field-blend-2024","provider":"Black Market","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
