This wine is from grapes grown in our Kuranui Vineyard in the Upper Awatere Valley in Marlborough.

The grapes for this wine were harvested and transported to our winery.  The fruit was pressed into stainless steel fermentation vessels and inoculated with Zymaflore RB2 yeast.  Following fermentation, the wine was inoculated for Malolactic fermentation and run off to barrel for maturation.  The wine spent around 12 months in oak before being blended and tankered to our Katikati winery for finishing and bottling in May 2023.
