Viticulture
Spring and Summer were cooler and wetter than usual, with the long ripening period allowing flavours to build in intensity while retaining freshness and vibrancy.
Vinification
100% Pinot Noir, clones Abel, 943, 667, 777, 115and 113
Vineyard parcels were individually hand harvested and destemmed to open top fermenters. Gentle hand plunging over a period of 10-22 days ensured the extraction of fine delicate tannins while retaining Central Otago's signature brightness and juicy fruit flavours.
