Huia
Blanc de Blancs Sparkling 2019 750ml

 Vineyard / Vintage

Cooler flowering conditions lead to loose grape bunches which helped to minimize disease risk. A long dry summer resulted in pristine fruit with great concentration. Our grapes were sourced from vines located in the Lower Omaka Valley and our Home Block in the Central Wairau Valley.

Winemaking

This sparkling wine was made in the Traditional Method. The fruit was hand harvest and whole bunch pressed before being racked into neutral French Oak barrels for ferment. After ferment the wine rested in cuve for 11 months. It was then bottled for tirage and left to age on lees for 4 years. The bottles were hand riddled over a 4 week period before being disgorged.
