AGING
After blending, the wine was left to settle on light lees before bottling on the Wairau River Estate.
FERMENTATION
The grapes were harvested in the cool hours of the morning, and gently pressed and fermented in stainless steel vats. A small parcel was fermented and aged in older French oak to add texture and palate weight.
