Description

Hand harvested bunches were whole bunch pressed the following morning, with the juice being separated into different ‘cuts’.  The free-run and light pressings were transferred to a tank to settle overnight, then racked to barrel.  No sulphur or carbon dioxide was used at this stage – oxidative handling.

A few days after being put to barrel the wild fermentation began and resulted in a slow steady ferment.  Once ambient temperatures warmed up after winter, wild malo-lactic fermentation began, with the wine resting on gross lees for an extended period of 19 months.  Only French oak barrels were used with 15% new oak in the blend.  The wine was racked a couple of times before bottling unfined and unfiltered.

ABOUT THE PRODUCER

Hi, I’m Jeremy, co-founder and winemaker here at REW. In 2006, I left little old New Zealand to do a vintage in California before finding myself in Chile, the home country of my beautiful wife Catalina.

After meeting in 2010, we packed our bags to explore some of the world’s greatest wine regions, before settling on Marlborough as our new base and home.

While I got stuck into making wines, Catalina continued her career as a dentist. Alongside working our day jobs and welcoming two wonderful children, Benji and Sofia, we started making small-batch ‘garage wines’, leading to where we are today.

For the most part, we’re the whole team behind Ripple Effect Wines, a special family project that we hope will bring joy to all who encounter it, just as it has us.
