Viticulture
0.7ha of Abel clone meticulously farmed to the highest standard in its third year of organic conversion producing stellar fruit. Soils are predominantly loess over deep silts that have developed pedogenic lime deposits.
Winemaking
25% whole bunch with the remainder gently destemmed to maintain a high percentage of whole berries. Fermented using the natural yeasts from the vineyard and winery in an open top concrete tulipe fermenter for 21 days. Aged in 500L puncheons for 12 months, 25% new oak, then blended and aged for a further 6 months in oak prior to being bottled unfined and unfiltered.
Tasting notes
Complex, alluring nose of rich ripe plums and wild thyme gives a depth and warmth to the aromas that envelop. Plush flavours of ripe rich fruits and spices. The mouthfeel is plush and silky with a velvety texture that holds the intense fruit together. A wine that speaks of this very special piece of land.

Central Otago Wines
Central Otago is a unique wine region for New Zealand as it does not grow any of the country's famous Sauvignon Blanc but also unique globally for being the most southerly commercial wine region in the world. The region is famous for its fruity and full-bodied Pinot Noir with about ¾ of all vineyards in the region growing this grape variety. One of our favourite Pinot Noir regions here at World Wine.
Central Otago is the only region in New Zealand with a truly continental climate, with large daily and seasonal temperature extremes. At 300m in elevation, vineyards are protected from the cold ocean winds by high mountains reaching 3700m. The soils are also different to the rest of the country, with heavy deposits of rough-edged mica and other metamorphic schists in silt loams.
Historically, the subregion of Bannockburn has seen the most success. However, the region has seen significant growth in recent years and other sub regions are also flourishing.
