Winery notes (2022 Vintage)
"2022 in Martinborough was a cool vintage that produced wines of great focus and poise. Cooler nights meant the wines retained their natural acidity and offer a great expression of the site in which they were grown. Pinot Blanc is a rare variety that is known for its spicy subtle flavours and its ability to truly reflect its terroir. Settled juice was fermented in old French barriques, where it was aged for 4 months to create a dry, soft style of wine that is immediately accessible upon release or will cellar for at up to 5 years.

Stone fruit and white peach jump out of the class, with spicy floral notes along with almond kernel also apparent. A savoury note on the pallet entwines with a backbone of fresh acidity, creating a lighter body wine that is fresh and delicate. A perfect accompaniment for white fish and lighter meals."

Rated Excellent, 5 Stars & 93/100 NZ Wine Rater (2022 Vintage)
"A restrained yet engaging, vinous bouquet with sophisticated, subtle aromas of lemon curd pie, chevre, cream cheese, vanilla, toasted brioche and almonds. Rich, textured and well-weighted palate with ripe, gala apple flavour and taut, lemon acidity adding balance before a long, satisfying finish. An impressive example of the variety."
