Climate: The 2023 growing season started with soil moisture at capacity following a wet winter. Flowering conditions were uneven across Marlborough, with some sub-regions achieving a good set and crop load and others below average set. Vigilance around disease pressure was paramount, with regular rain events through the season and unusual humidity and warm nights through much of December and January. Day time temperatures were not warm, delaying the vine’s physiological advancement. Marlborough breathed a sigh of relief as cyclone Gabrielle minimally impacted the region in February, while wreaking havoc through much of the North Island. The season turned a corner for Marlborough in early March with a return to cool nights and sunnier conditions allowing us to delay harvest for as long as possible, resulting in fruit that reached good sugar levels with attractive flavours, while disease levels remained low and manageable. Fruit condition remained very good through until the end of harvest.
Grape Growing: This Pinot Noir Rosé is sourced from two estate grown vineyards – 14% from Pauls Road (Rapaura) and 86% from Little Alfred (Southern Valleys). The vines were trained to a mixture of 2-cane and spur-pruned vertical shoot position design. Throughout the growing season the vines were thoughtfully managed, with open canopies and prudent crop thinning helping to create fully ripe, clean fruit come harvest time.
