“The majority of this wine is Pinot Blanc made to echo Chardonnay, the late addition of 25% early picked direct press blanc de noir rose from the Barbour Vineyard on the slopes of North Canterbury steered the wine toward a more delicate and lively wine mirroring a Coteaux Champenois. All barrel fermented with minimal battonage. 6 Months in oak.
White peach, strawberry, coconut and lifted white floral aromas with soft acidity and persistent minerality.”
