Producentens tekst (engelsk): The 2024 vintage was a dream vintage for the region; Helen Masters describes it as the best vintage she has seen in her 22 years as Ata Rangi Winemaker.What really set it apart was great canopy balance with a cool dry March that allowed for exceptional phenolic ripeness combined with bright crystalline acidity. The nose combines notes of toasted fennel seeds, white cardamon, lemon pith and fresh biscuit. On the palate flavours of lemon grass, orange blossom and almond are carried by bright clear acidity.The acidity is held in place by fruit weight and fine phenolics.The palate finishes with a long delicious almost salty character which is a hallmark of this site.A wonderful combination of power, precision and elegance.
