Juices are cold settled for two to three days and racked. Following fermentation, the wine is chilled to zero degrees prior to racking and determining the final cuvee. Crafted with minimum intervention to capture and retain the exquisite personality of Marlborough vineyards, the natural expressions of fruit and racy acidity deliver balance, backbone and length.
