Vintage Summary
Vintage 2024 was another one for the history books, with a hot, dry summer and low rainfall impacting the Marlborough region. It’s a year that can be celebrated for its outstanding quality. Several factors contributed to lower yields, with early spring frosts, cooler temperatures during flowering, and prolonged dry conditions and water restrictions throughout summer and the harvest period. The unique seasonal conditions of vintage 2024 have produced wines of exceptional quality and showing the wonderful hallmarks that our Marlborough vineyards are known for – highly concentrated flavours, with underlying purity and minerality.
We are excited to share them with the world.
Winemaking
Individual parcels of fruit were harvest, destemmed and gently pressed. The juice was then left to settle in tank for 48 hours, where it was racked prior to fermentation. A long, cool fermentation, using a range of yeasts to capture the bright, fresh fruit characters. The individual parcels were then blended, stabilised and filtered prior to bottling.
