Winery notes (2024 Vintage)
"Hand-harvested fruit, whole bunch pressed and fermented with wild yeast in French oak barrels. A 100% barrel ferment lends texture and depth. Aromas of white peach and ripe lychee, layered with subtle floral tones, sit alongside a faint mineral edge, offering both aromatic lift and complexity. A vibrant entry of succulent stonefruit evolves into a focused core of grapefruit acidity, delivering precision and energy. The palate is finely textured, with a mineral backbone and a thread of salinity providing structure and drive, leading to a long, refined finish that is distinctly expressive of the Waitaki Valley’s cool-climate elegance."
Rated Excellent & 94/100 Cameron Douglas MS, April 2026 (2024 Vintage)
"Great colour and bouquet with yellow gold hues then aromas of nut and baked stone fruits, vanilla and whipped cream, nectarine and even a touch of banana. Complex too with a distinctive voice of site with a limestone soil voice. On the palate a full-bodied dry wine with a core of green melon and stone fruit flavours, vanilla and baked nut complexities. Medium+ acid line, a silky-cream texture and fine tannins from oak and fruit leading to a lengthy finish. Best drinking from day of purchase through 2031+."
