Notes
Pinot Noir grapes grown on two selected vineyards in the Nelson region that reflect their own unique impression in our final blend. Grapes grown on Moutere Clay soils teamed with grapes from the Richmond Hills with well drained clay loam soils. It was a challenging growing season. A longer than average flowering period with a cooler summer temperatures. Harvest started later than usual with careful vineyard management the fruit was looking great. Midway through vintage the region experienced several tropical storm systems, which doubled the average rainfall for this period, but our selected grapes came through in surprisingly good condition. Initial hand plunging in open fermenters for 4 weeks then 100% oak barrel matured in predominantly French Oak barrels over the following 13 months. Dark garnet red colour with good depth, leads to a full ripe palate of rich berryfruits with soft tannis and a concentrated unfiltered for a full flavour finish.
