Winemaker Notes
The Pinot Noir grapes were sourced from the Wairau Valley and our new vineyard in the Seventeen Valley just south of Blenheim. The grapes, which include a mixture of clones with UCD 5, UCD 6 and 10/5 being the prominent ones, were in excellent condition and a dry season allowed them to fully mature. The grapes were fermented on skins with a portion being traditionally hand plunged in small fermenters, and the other pumped over to facilitate color extraction. The wine was French and American oak aged for eight months. Drinking well now, this wine should benefit from another two to three years aging.
