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.

Hand-harvested Pinot Noir was cold-soaked for 24 to 48 hours before pressing the brightly coloured juice off the grape skins. The juice was fermented cool using selected aromatic yeast. A small portion was fermented in old French oak to add a hint of caramel to the palate.
