Grapes were grown in the Awatere and Wairau Valleys of Marlborough.

Parcels were brought into the winery and quickly pressed and run to take to protect from oxidization. The juice was settled, then racked, warmed and inoculated with a range of aromatic yeasts. After approximately four weeks the ferments were finished. The wines were chilled and topped so that the aromatic flavours were released from the yeast lees. After another four weeks the wines were racked, and wearmed ready for blending, after which they were fined using traditional methods.
