OUR WINEMAKING PHILOSOPHY
with every step of the winemaking process our goal is to uphold the incredible aromatics + scintillating structure of our wines.
after harvest, we keep the fruit as cool as possible to retain bright, fresh marlborough fruit flavours. gentle crushing helps to preserve the personality of the variety and the influence of the site. our sauvignon blanc, pinot gris and riesling are kept in stainless steel tanks to maintain zesty fruit characteristics. our chardonnay and pinot noir are aged in new and used french oak barriques to add complexity and tannins.
OUR WINES
Sauvignon Blanc
Our Sauvignon Blanc style is bright, forward and direct. Vivaciously crisp, it showcases gooseberry, citrus and fresh tropical fruit flavours that linger through the finish.
Pinot Gris
Our Pinot Gris perfectly balances enticing aromatics with firm minerality. It has a richly structured palate and is full of luscious jasmine, citrus and pear.
Chardonnay
Marlborough Chardonnay is known for its finesse and ours is no exception. Elegantly styled and expressive, it displays ripe stone fruit flavours and a long, softly structured palate.
Riesling
Our Riesling is bright and fresh, with hints of sweet honeysuckle, stone fruit, and citrus zest flavours. A touch of sweetness is beautifully balanced against crisp acidity.
