VINEYARDS
This Syrah is produced from low-yielding vines, just across the road from our winery, located at the western end of Waiheke Island. The vineyard site is situated on a sun-drenched, north facing slope with predominantly mineralised clay soils over Jurassic era rock. The viticulture is meticulous, with the aim
of balanced, heathy vines, which bear beautifully ripe grapes with intense concentration of natural Syrah characteristics. Harvesting perfect fruit is our first priority.
WINEMAKING
The Syrah grapes were handpicked in late March 2018, and immediately transferred into open top fermenters in our winery. The ferment was predominantly whole berry, with a portion of whole bunch in there too. We fermented some with wild yeast, and the rest with carefully selected strains. At pressing, only the free run wine was retained and run to French oak puncheons where it rested and matured for 12
months. 23% of the barrels were new. This wine is unfined with minimal gentle filtration prior to bottling.
