The wine region of North Island
New Zealand's North Island, warmer and more varied than the South Island. Bordeaux varieties and Pinot Noir as signatures. Merlot in Hawke's Bay as a supple red with notes of plum, ripe cherry, fresh herbs and a spicy touch, round tannins — blended with Cabernet and peppery Syrah. Fine Pinot Noir in Wairarapa/Martinborough (cherry, undergrowth).
The word of the wine: Solera
A method of maturing practiced in Andalusia for certain sherries, which aims to continuously blend older and younger wines. It consists of stacking several layers of barrels; those located at ground level (solera) contain the oldest wines, the youngest being stored in the barrels on the upper level. The wine to be bottled is taken from the barrels on the lower level, which is replaced by younger wine from the upper level, and so on.
