Owners Roger and Jean Gibbson have lived in the Lowburn Valley of Central Otago for 25 years and recognised the viticultural potential of a north-facing slope on their property. Roger holds a Masters degree in applied science and works part-time as a viticultural tutor at the Otago Polytech, while Jean has a degree in horticultural science. Their vineyard has been pasture for more than 100 years and is rich in organic matter. Gloriously bright with wonderful farmyard nuances and a distinct mushroom edge. Complex, savoury layers. Lovely cool-climate fruit – fresh and vivid. Very pure with unforced concentration. Fantastic complexity with great length.Truly beautiful. - Phillip Tuck

How good is this. Seductive, powerful, refined and opulent at the same time. Gorgeous aromas of dark cherry, truffle, cedar, dried herb and roasted beet lead to a concentrated palate that delivers layers of delicious flavours. It is richly textured and generously flavoured, while remaining elegant and poised, and finishes superbly long and velvety. Wonderfully expressive and hugely appealing. At its best: now to 2024
