The grapes for this wine come from selected Marlborough vineyard sites. Free run juice was cool fermented in stainless steel. The wine was tasted daily to determine the time to stop fermentation to retain the desired sugar to acid balance.
Made to be enjoyed with the complexities of several years bottle age, some will also enjoy this wine in its youth for its power and vitality.
