Certified organic, the 2017 vintage (4.5*) was estate-grown in the Wairau Valley, hand-picked, fermented with indigenous yeasts and matured for nine months in French oak puncheons. Deep amber, it's a distinctive, 'full-on' style with concentrated spice and apricot flavours, and a firm, bone-dry finish.
