The grapes come from a single vineyard site in Eskdale, north of Napier, whose vineyards were destroyed by flooding caused by Cyclone Gabrielle. The wine is an orange, skin-contact style made from Pinot Gris and Gewürztraminer, with smaller proportions of Chardonnay and Pinot Blanc. Skin maceration gives it a deep orange colour and a waxy, grippy texture. Aromatically, it shows soft Gewürztraminer notes and abundant fruit; on the palate, this richness is balanced by salty, fresh acidity. Source: Cult Wine.
