Carbónica

The grapes come from southern Wairarapa near Martinborough, from the alluvial, gravel-rich soils of the Dry-River-Flats. The vintage was harvested on 17 March 2025 at 22.1 Brix, pH 3.61 and 5.18 g/l acidity; bottling took place on 26 November 2025, with a production run of 915 bottles. The wine displays aromatic red berries, wild raspberry and blackberry, together with hints of bubblegum. It is juicy, fleshy, ripe and fresh, with a light to medium structure and a deliberately uncomplicated drinkability. The designation Carbónica refers to the style of a red wine intended to be served chilled.
