A wine with outstanding texture & length
A wine with outstanding texture & length
Description
Dry, Herbal, Lemon
Notes of bright citrus, tropical fruit, lemongrass and crushed herbs. Mouth-watering minerality and intense fruit concentration. Fresh, juicy, and persistent finish.
Upper Awatere Valley, Marlborough, New Zealand. Arapoto (Short Path) Block. Planted 2002.
Sustainably grown grapes using organic practices. Excellent ripening season with cool but sunny, dry weather and low yields. Extended time on the vine resulting in concentrated, ripe fruit while still retaining fresh acidity.
Harvested using a modern machine harvester in the early morning when the grapes were cool. Grapes pressed into stainless steel tanks for fermentation, with a small portion then transferred to French oak barrels for maturation. Carefully blended after 8 months, then aged a further 3 months before bottling. A wine with outstanding texture and length.
Fruit for this wine is grown using organic practices on our Arapoto block, high above the Awatere River. Partially aged in French oak barrels to build a luscious, richly textured wine. Vibrant, complex, uniquely Awatere.
