"This is a single vineyard Gamay offering from the Quinn’s meticulously managed ‘Two Terraces Vineyard’ in Maraekakaho. Using artisanal technique of fermenting whole bunches (hand picked) with traditional foot stomping, followed by maturation in a combination of seasoned oak puncheons and our stone egg tanks.
The 2021 is our seventh vintage working with Gamay and that experience coupled with the maturing Two Terraces vineyard has allowed us to craft an exceptional example of this increasingly recognised varietal.
Our boldest Gamay yet. The dark colour hints at the concentration resulting from a superb vintage. Aromas of plum, tar, rose and spice bound. On the palate uncommon power and structure frame abundant fruit, leading to a long finish.
A warm spring catalysed an early bud burst. Sporadic rainfall coupled with warmer than average temperatures set a moderate crop through spring and early summer. From midsummer, warm dry conditions persisted through until harvest yielding fully ripe, concentrated fruit in impeccable condition."
