Region: Rapaura, Wairua Plains, Marlborough, New Zealand.

Winemaking: Pinot Blanc from our Orchard Vineyard was hand harvested and gently pressed whole bunch.  The free run juice was fermented in stainless steel to preserve the freshness and fruit character of the wine.  It was left on full lees and underwent indigenous MLF in spring.  After 11 months, the wine was tirage bottled then matured for 12 months on lees to develop yeast autolysis characters prior to disgorging.

Tasting Notes: Aromas of freshly baked apple tarte tatin on the nose.  A great balance between the autolyse complexity characters and generous notes of poached nashi pear.  The palate balances this delicate primary fruit with a refreshing and lengthy finish.

Technical: Alcohol - 13.0%.  pH - 3.0g/l.  TA - 7.2g/l.  RS - 4.0g/ls.  Contains sulphites.  Certified organic and vegan friendly.

Winemakers: Allan McWilliams & Jordan Hogg.
