O Produtor, tasting note published in March 20th 2023
The wonderful fruit in this wine comes from a combination of vineyards with different soils and viticultural techniques from Southern Valley tributaries of the main Wairau Valley. The commonality between the vineyards, is the focus on vine health, achieved with careful adjustments to yield and water management, as well as a very balanced approach to vine nutrition.
