Bright appearance with a ruby red hue.

Lifted floral nose with raspberry and cherry aromas, with an abundance of savoury/earthy complexity. The palate is vibrant with tension and length, showing a nice mixture of bright fruit/herbal elements and a savoury structure that North Canterbury is renowned for.

Season Summary

The spring and early summer was cool with higher than expected rainfall resulting in good canopies and smaller crops. From Christmas through till harvest, we experienced very warm and settled weather which resulted in beautifully ripe, clean fruit.

Tasting Note

Bright appearance with a deep crimson hue. Deep brooding nose of plum and blue fruits with lifted floral spicey notes. Full bodied Pinot Noir with ripe, rich fruits, mouth filling texture and round plush tannins giving the wine weight and power with a savoury moreish finish.

Viticulture

A blend of 4 vineyards through North Canterbury. The sites include the most northern vineyard on the Omihi Saddle planted on Omihi clay soils. Top block which is part of the "golden Mile” on Blacks Ave in Waipara also planted on Omihi clay soils. Three Sisters Vineyard on Mackenzies Rd in Waipara, planted on Rangitata gravels and the Porters Family vineyard on Mackenzies Rd in Waipara, planted in 2004 on Domett Clay soils. Harvest dates: 18/3/2019 -30/3/2019
