Additional Information

The grapes are foot crushed and soak for 18 hours before whole bunch pressing to old oak barrels. I made a vineyard starter (pied de cuve) with Chenin grapes that fermented naturally in the vineyard under the vines. I then inoculated my barrels with this natural starter ensuring a healthy vineyard yeast and strong ferment. The wine is lightly stirred during the full moon in winter.
something
I work with organic grapes sourced locally in Hawke's Bay because I believe in responsible farming, improving the health of our soils and what we put into our bodies. I have the privilege of working collaboratively with my growers, who care for their vineyards with great attention, heart and detail. I farm all of my allocated parcels biodynamically to improve and understand my connection to the land. This encourages biodiversity, life energy & optimal health in the vineyard.
