Notes
Harvest 2022 threw just about everything at us to challenge even the most seasoned grower. From a cool, damp flowering period, beautiful hot January followed by super wet February, huge disease pressure all round, etc. Fortunately from the beginning of March onwards, the fine weather returned and stayed. While yields were down on average, the fruit that was harvested was in the main very good and we’re looking forward to some great wine. Fruit sourced from a single vineyard in Upper Moutere. 100% fermentation in older French oak for over 10 months. Aromas of white peach, apple and cream with mild spicy vanilla notes, distinctive of the French oak influence. The palate is fruit driven, full and creamy with a silky texture and a generous warming mouth feel.
