Notes

Harvest 2023 was also a challenging season to start with. Variable fruit set and early disease pressure made it challenging work for our team out in the vineyards. It settled down with a dry, hot January, then February kicked in and was wet from start to end. March came along and the weather behaved until harvest time. We ended up with good quality fruit across all varieties and about average sized volumes. All in all, a very good year and some lovely wines to follow. Single vineyard in the Moutere Hills region, planted with the oldest commercially grown Riesling vines in the South Island. A generous, full flavoured wine with a smooth long finish

Food Pairing

A great food wine which goes well with most cheese and fish dishes.

Cellar

Enjoy this easy drinking, off-dry beauty now or will reward aging until 2030.
