The wine region of Waitaki
New Zealand's youngest wine region (first vines 2001), South Island (North Otago), complex soils of limestone, greywacke and schist. Pinot Noir the signature red: elegant and delicate with cherry, raspberry, strawberry, wild herbs and spice — more aerial and fine-boned than Central Otago Pinots. Taut Riesling with citrus, blossom and mineral hints, cutting acidity. Pinot Gris and Chardonnay as complements.
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.
The word of the wine: Aging on lees
Maturing on the lees enhances the stability, aromatic complexity and texture of white wines, which gain in body and volume. This phenomenon is induced by autolysis, the process of self-degradation of the lees.
