The Light Dry White is made as blanc de noir from organic Pinot Noir grown on the terraces of the Ruamahanga River in Martinborough.

Vineyard:

The fruit comes from the biogro certified Grava vineyard, farmed by Alistair and Karla on the dry river flats 8km south of Martinborough. The vines are grown on the terraces of the Ruamahanga river providing alluvial deposits making silt loam soils.

Winemaking:

Hand harvested, whole bunch pressed to tank where it settled for overnight then racked to large format barrel for indigenous fermentation. Five months aging on lees with a couple stirs and indigenous malolactic fermentation. Racked to tank, with a small sulphur addition and bottled unfined, unfiltered.

Tasting:

Flavours of mandarin, lime sherbet, white peach and heady florals. This wine is energetic with a fruit purity framed on chalky phenolics and linear minerality. A refreshing style with layers and length.

Only 597 bottles produced!!!
