Origin
Bannockburn, Central Otago, New Zealand

The grapes come from a single north-west-facing block with silty clay soils and 26-year-old ungrafted vines of clone 10/5. After hand-harvesting and sorting, the grapes were destemmed and fermented in a tank with wild yeasts. The wine remained on the skins for 17 days and then matured for ten months in barriques, 23 percent of them new. It shows floral notes, blackberry fruit and dark depth, yet remains light and elegant on the palate. The acidity is 5,4 g/l and the residual sugar is below 1 g/l. The wine was neither fined nor filtered; sulphur dioxide was added.
