vineyard Grapes for this wine were predominantly grown in the Hawkes Bay subregions of Te Awanga and the Bridge Pa Triangle. There are 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. Small parcels of Gewurztraminer (6%) and Viognier (2%) have been 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.
