The wine region of Gibbston
Coolest and highest sub-region of New Zealand's Central Otago (Kawarau Gorge near Queenstown, loess and alluvial soils over fluvial gravel and schist, unique continental climate, first commercial Pinot Noir in 1987). Pinot Noir is the cool-climate flagship red — light and elegant with intense raspberry and strawberry, pronounced floral notes from altitude and marked acidity. Lighter in alcohol than Cromwell; refined, airy expression.
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.
