Aromatically alluring with stone fruit, fresh pear and a hint of ginger spice, the complex, juicy flavours are balanced with a subtle lusciousness.

Vintage 2022 kept us on our toes, with variable weather and the peak of an Omicron outbreak here in New Zealand. Excellent teamwork meant we were able to harvest our fruit as it was ready, retaining vibrant acidity and concentrated fruit flavours. Rain throughout the growing season replenished soil moisture, which supported a better than average crop. Cooler weather leading into harvest has created slightly higher acidity, which is balanced with ripe fruit flavour. We’re looking forward to sharing our 2022 wines with you!

Overlooking the ocean in dry and windswept Blind River, we grow our grapes in one of the harshest environments in Marlborough. Our grapes enjoy the region’s long sunshine hours, while the ocean breeze keeps things cooler and drier. Pinot Gris grapes were harvested, before being gently pressed and fermented in stainless steel tanks. After harvest, the fruit was gently pressed and cool fermented with selected yeast strains to retain fruit flavour.
