Discover the grape variety: Gamay Fréaux

Deeply coloured, simple reds with an opaque purple hue (red pulp), supple tannins and a light palate with moderate acidity, showing discreet red fruit aromas. Teinturier profile. Formerly used to intensify the colour of southern and Burgundian blends, now marginal, surviving in a few variety collections for its patrimonial value and genetic interest. Teinturier variation of Gamay developed in the 19th century.

The wine region of Central Otago

The world's southernmost vineyard, jewel of New Zealand Pinot Noir. Intense, deep reds with signature notes of black cherry, ripe plum, violet, wild thyme and sweet spices, velvety tannins and a freshness kept taut by cold nights — a fleshy, sun-soaked style. Also ample Pinot Gris (pear, honey), dry and off-dry Riesling with lively citrus, precise Chardonnay. Vineyards between 200-450 m on schist soils, continental climate.


The wine region of South Island

New Zealand's southern island, cradle of the country's great wines. Sauvignon Blanc signature in Marlborough (~80% of national vineyard): explosive and tropical with grapefruit, passion fruit, boxwood, cut grass and mineral touch — global benchmark. Pinot Noir star in Central Otago (among the most southerly) and Waipara: airy with cherry, raspberry, undergrowth, thyme. Taut Riesling, precise Chardonnay, floral Pinot Gris.
