GROWING SEASON:

Central Otago experienced a growing season of extremes. Rain and strong wind through November and December impacted flowering, reducing yields. This was followed by a warm and mild January which helped develop healthy canopies. At harvest, nighttime temperatures plummeted, dramatically slowing the pace of ripening. This helped retain bright acidity, and allowed picking to extend from mid-March until mid-May. The small crops ensured great concentration of flavour.

VINEYARD:

2020 Lowburn Terrace Riesling was picked from Block 1, in the south west corner of Amisfield Estate. Vines are grown in stony Lochar gravel, overlaid by sandy loam.

TASTING NOTES:

Intensely aromatic with jasmine and orange blossom florals matched with fresh kiwi fruit on the palate. A very juicy wine, with a salivating balance of mineral acidity and sweetness. Our take on a kabinett style Riesling.
