Able clone. The basis of this wine is the synergy between alcoholic and carbonic fermentation. Carbonic fermentation (think Beaujolias) achieves the lifted aromas of maraschino cherry, clove. The synergy creates a lovely silky, supple texture. 10% foot crush, 20% destemmed, 70% whole bunch. Basket pressed. Bottled February 2023.

Mineral. Cherry. Sweet salty licorice. Raspberry. Soft tannin. Brooding. Bryterlater

Bryterlater wines are made with intent, honesty, and an abundance of respect for the process. The winery works thoughtfully in the vineyard, using organically farmed grapes from select sites within the North Canterbury region.

The winery adheres to minimal intervention practices, in an endeavor to offer wines that speak for themselves, rather than the ego of their maker. They acknowledge whatever the season gives, and use it to guide the process and decisions.
