PROFILE
Vineyard
Grapes for this wine were predominantly grown in the Hawkes Bay subregions
of Te Awanga and the Bridge Pa Triangle in a variety of soil types,
ranging from free draining gravelly soils to silty clay. Low yielding vines with
good fruit exposure have resulted in excellent flavour intensity and ripeness. A
small parcel of Gewurztraminer (5%) was blended into the wine adding further
complexity and interest.
Wine making
The fruit for this wine was destemmed, crushed and pressed immediately to
avoid extended skin contact. The naturally settled juice was racked clear and
inoculated for ferment. Fermentation of the wine at cool temperatures has
retained fruit purity and acid/sugar balance was achieved by stopping the
ferment before complete dryness. A gentle fining with natural products helped
round the wine out before being filtered and bottled.
