Vinification | Fruit for this wine was sourced from the home vineyard at Blind River to the south of the Awatere Valley and from the coastal Lower Wairau sub region 30 minutes to the north. At 28m above sea level and only a mile from the Pacific Ocean, the home vineyard is cooled during the height of summer by afternoon onshore easterly winds. A rich loamy topsoil of around 500-750 mm overlays wind-blown clay loess here. In the Lower Wairau vineyards, the dominant feature is the very deep fertile silt loam soils laid down over thousands of years near the coast. All vines are trained on 3 & 4 cane VSP. |
