SINGLE VINEYARD RANGE
Drawing from Gibbston Valley’s™ most intriguing vineyards, the Single Vineyard range gives full voice to site.
DIAMOND VINEYARD
The Diamond block is part of the Torr vineyard, located in Pisa, Central Otago. Wines from the western side of Lake Dunstan have a refined beauty. Located on the lower terrace above the Cromwell basin floor (230m), it has 2 clones of Pinot Noir planted over 3 hectares.
2020 CENTRAL OTAGO GROWING SEASON
Following a fine start, vintage 2020 had cool, unsettled conditions over December and January. Early developing vineyards had even flowering and set, later ones had truncated flowering and uneven set and development. Whilst the weather stabilised through March and April, the vintage required careful negotiation in order to manage the wide range of vineyard, vine, and bunch variances. Yields were low, with real focus on fruit flavours.
Cellaring:
Cellar with confidence for up to 10 years.
Food Matches
A deeper style Pinot Noir pairs nicely with Duck & Lamb.
