Winemaking and Viticulture
Winemakers:

Stewart Maclennan

Winemaking and Viticulture:

The fruit was sourced from a selection of vineyards predominantly in Marlborough’s Awatere Valley and harvested at optimum flavour ripeness. The free-run juice was drained from the press and cold settled before a cool fermentation in stainless steel to retain the varietal aromas. The parcels of wine were selected by the winemakers and blended, then stabilized and carefully prepared for bottling.
