The grapes for this wine were sourced from three key vineyards across Marlborough. One in the Awatere valley, bringing a cooler climate aromatic influence. The other two vineyards are situated in the Southern valleys sub-region of the Wairau valley. The deep clay-based soils contribute to the concentration and structure of the wine.
