#'$2(.)0)":+');"788<" Tasting Note This year with lower alcohol, but excellent concentration, this lovely example of Nelson Sauvignon has aromas of capsicum, red apple, fruit salad and citrus, and it is completed by a distinctive mineral finish. It is balanced and full-bodied, with a textured and elegant palate. The wine has real depth and concentration, and is the perfect accompaniment to fine New Zealand seafood.
Harvest Details Our winemakers comment that the 2009 vintage was the best they have experienced at WAIMEA Estates. Controlled cropping, a warm summer but cooler introduction to autumn, and a very settled harvest period, provided optimum conditions to make concentrated, premium wines across the winery’s varietal range. Truly, the vintage of the decade! All the grapes for the WAIMEA 2009 Sauvignon Blanc were estate-grown grown on the stony alluvial soils of the Waimea Plains; they come from a range of our vineyards, including from younger vines on two newer vineyards, the Wells and Robertson blocks. The fruit was picked from late March onwards.
Winemaking Notes The grapes were machine harvested and de-stemmed without any crushing, protecting the aromatic ‘freshness’ naturally found in this variety. Some ‘skin contact’ was utilised prepressing to add richness and weight to the components. After pressing the juice was cold settled for 3 days to achieve low solids prior to ferment. To obtain good aromatic definition, the fermentations were carried out in stainless steel; the musts were inoculated with a range of aromatic yeasts and fermentation temperatures were kept low.

For a textural component, some ferments underwent frequent lees-stirring, for two months after the completion of ferment: the result is a multi-dimensional wine, with pure varietal expression, but with an underpinning of subtle texture. After blending, the wine was lightly fined then stabilised and cross flow filtered before being bottled from August 2009 onwards.

This lush 100% barrique fermented Sauvignon has enticing aromas of yellow capsicum, pineapple and hints of sage, while the palate has a rich, creamy mouth feel due to extended lees stirring and concentrated fruit flavours. The oak influence is subtle and contributes a delicious grippy undercurrent and restrained toasty notes but is never dominating, and the wine draws to a close with a cleansing dry fruit finish. Drinking well now, this wine also has the potential to cellar, due to its structural complexity. In addition, the screw cap closure will ensure that the wine ages gracefully, and retains its aromatic freshness. A lovely food wine which will match well with fish dishes.
Harvest Details The 2007/8 growing season was notable for its extremes. Spring was warm but with a nip of frost in–most unusual for the Plains. None of our vineyards were hit too seriously. The weather around flowering time was excellent, ensuring good fruit-set. Summer brought drought conditions, leading to our second-earliest vintage start on March 17. The grapes for the WAIMEA 2008 Barrel Fermented Sauvignon Blanc were grown on the free draining alluvial soils of our Annabrook (85%) and Hunter (15%) vineyards and were harvested in early April with average sugar levels of 21°Brix.

We wanted to make a distinctive food–friendly Sauvignon with both fresh Sauvignon characters and subtle barrelderived complexity. We fermented a small batch of Sauvignon Blanc in seasoned oak with some solids, and gave it extended lees stirring. The grapes were harvested at optimal ripeness, de-stemmed but not crushed. Only the free-run and lightest pressings were utilised, since they are the most perfumed. After pressing the juice was cold settled for several days, and racked to a selection of 2 to 4 year old oak barrels, and some fluffy lees were added back to the juice. The juice was then inoculated with yeasts, which emphasise floral and Sauvignon type aromas. A long slow ferment ensued, with temperatures into the high teens adding some savoury, ‘funky’ characters. For enhanced mouth-feel, the barrel ferments underwent frequent bâtonnage, or lees stirring, for over four months at the end of fermentation. In September, the wine was deemed to have spent sufficient time in barrel and was racked off its gross lees. Then the wine was lightly fined and stabilised, filtered and bottled at the beginning of October 2008. A limited bottling of only 133 cases was produced.

5()0&"6/(%"7889" Tasting Note This lovely example of Nelson Pinot Gris has aromas of pear drops, candied apple, fresh figs and Mirabelle plums. An off dry entry leads into a textured mid palate, with nice acidity on the sides, and the wine ends with a soft, non-bitter finish. Good concentration of fruit weight gives the wine real presence on the palate and with the balanced ‘palate architecture’ creates an elegant wine that is a very versatile food wine.

The weather around flowering time was excellent, ensuring good fruit-set. Summer brought drought conditions, leading to our second-earliest vintage start on March 17. All the grapes for the WAIMEA 2008 Pinot Gris were grown on the stony alluvial soils of the Waimea Plains. Harvest was from the end of March through to the beginning of April with a range of Brix levels of between 22.8° to 24.5°.
Winemaking Notes Hand harvested fruit was whole bunch pressed gently to minimise unattractive phenolics, and an early press cut made. After cold settling the clarified juice was inoculated with Alsatian yeast selected for its ability to enhance body, texture and aromatics in the finished wine.

Moderately cool fermentation (13-15°) followed in stainless steel, to favour fruit expression and retention of varietal characteristics. Once the fermentations were arrested to retain some residual sugar, the yeast lees were stirred weekly for a couple of months to add structure and textural interest to the palate. The blended wine was lightly fined, stabilised and cross flow filtered, ready for bottling in the second week of September.

The ‘spritzig’ from the CO2 helps give the wine added zest and a clean finish. It’s a useful ‘luncheon’ wine, which also matches well to Chinese cuisine.

The 2007/8 growing season was notable for its extremes. Spring was warm but with a nip of frost in–most unusual for the Plains. None of our vineyards were hit too seriously. The weather around flowering time was excellent, ensuring good fruit-set. Summer brought drought conditions, leading to our second-earliest vintage start on March 17. The grapes for the WAIMEA 2008 Classic Riesling were grown on the free draining alluvial soils of our Annabrook and Hunter vineyards and were harvested in early April with average sugar levels of 22.8°Brix
Winemaking Notes Once at the winery the grapes were gently pressed without skin contact to minimise phenolic pickup. Only free-run juice was used, giving the resulting wine fresh aromatics typical of Riesling and a ‘delicate’ palate. After cold settling the clean (low grape solids) juice was racked to a stainless steel tank and inoculated with selected German yeast.

Once at the winery the Riesling was de-stemmed, but not crushed, then pressed without skin contact to minimise phenolic pickup. The juice was treated reductively to preserve aromatic fruit character. After cold settling, the clean-racked (low grape solids) juice was inoculated with German yeast. This yeast was chosen for its terpene liberating action to bolster the typicity of the variety with bottle age. The fermentation was long and cool, again to maintain the integrity of the variety. Post-fermentation the wine was racked off its gross lees, left on its fine lees for a period, then fined for stability and palate ‘roundness’. It was bottled in December 2006.

The weather around flowering time was excellent, ensuring good fruit-set. Summer brought drought conditions, leading to our second-earliest vintage start on March 17. All the grapes for the WAIMEA 2008 Gewürztraminer were grown on the stony alluvial soils of the Waimea Plains, coming from our Lansdowne and Annabrook vineyards. This year our Gewürztraminer fruit was the first to ripen and was our very first fruit into the winery on the 17th March. It was hand-harvested within a range of Brix levels from 23° to the ultra-ripe level of 26°Brix.
Winemaking Notes Once at the winery, the hand-harvested grapes were wholebunch pressed, thus minimising extraction of harsh phenolics. Vineyard parcels were separately fermented, and light pressings separated off. After cold settling the juices were racked with minimal solids and inoculated with aromatic yeast strain.

After cold settling for several days, the juice was clean-racked (low grape solids) to tank and inoculated with neutral yeast– to encourage the natural expression of the primary fruit flavours of the grapes. A smaller portion of the juice was fermented in seasoned French oak. The tank ferment was kept cool to maintain fresh fruit aromatics, while the barrel ferments ran warmer, creating funkier, ferment-derived nuances. After a five-week fermentation, the wines were lees-stirred weekly for a further two months before both components were racked off gross lees and blended together.

Our winemakers comment that the 2009 vintage was the best they have experienced at WAIMEA Estates. Controlled cropping, a warm summer but cooler introduction to autumn, and a very settled harvest period, provided optimum conditions to make concentrated, premium wines across the winery’s varietal range. Truly, the vintage of the decade! Inspiration for this wine comes from Alsace, where Edelzwicker is a blend of the aromatic varietals. Our ‘Edel’ is a blend of Riesling (47%), Pinot Gris (38%) and Gewürztraminer (15%). With the spicy aromatics of Gewurz, the texture of Pinot Gris and the fresh acidity of Riesling, the resultant blend is full of intrigue and delight! All the grapes for this special wine were grown on the stony alluvial soils of the Waimea Plains, coming from our Lansdowne and Annabrook vineyards.

The 2006 vintage was unusual in that the season was shorter than expected due to a hot summer. Spring started off normally– nothing too dramatic – and importantly it didn’t rain much during flowering so fruit set was at normal levels. The summer started early though, with some very hot days in December. The rest of the summer continued in that vein with very little rain leading to drought conditions here on the Plains. Due to good crop levels and a warm season, this year’s fruit has excellent concentration and flavours. The grapes for this botrytised, late harvest Riesling were allowed to hang out on the vines until early winter. This extended hang time allowed the infected grapes to ‘raisin’ nicely concentrating the sugars and the flavours in the berries. The fully botrytised fruit was hand harvested 26th May well after all the leaves had dropped from the vines, with Brix levels in the range 36-50°. The most raisined fruit was kept separate for our Noble Riesling, while the balance went into this Late Harvest Riesling blend.

After prolonged pressing times to gently extract the juice from the raisined berries, the must was cold settled and racked. After coarse filtration to stainless steel, the must was inoculated with specific high Brix tolerant yeast. The fermentation lasted a couple of months and was maintained at cool temperatures, barely rising above 14°C – ensuring strong varietal aromatics in the finished wine. When the sugars and alcohol levels were deemed in balance, the fermentation was stopped, and the wine racked off its gross lees. Blending took place some months later before fining with C-fine to polish off the wine, then the wine was stabilised and filtered. The Late Harvest Riesling was bottled in December 2006.

5()0&"?0%,"788<" Tasting Note Often over looked, rosé wines whether dry or off dry, can be a truly refreshing summer drink, while still bearing some relation to red wine. Rosé makes a novel and stimulating aperitif to a meal; its bright and delicate characters suited particularly to lunchtime dining, and the juicy fruit characters making it an excellent companion to pork dishes. Our Pinot Rosé has fruit notes of watermelon, raspberry and liquor cherries. It has fresh acidity, which combined with the just off-dry style; make this a very palatable wine. Delicate tannins are threaded through the palate. These contribute to the long finish and give the wine structure and enough pizzazz to use it, not only as an aperitif, but also as a very versatile food wine. Cin cin!

We choose to make a Pinot Rosé as not only does it concentrate those Pinot Noir musts from which we bleed the juice, but we love the primary berry fruit notes Pinot gives to this wine style. Once processed the Pinot Noir musts undergo a cold soak period, and after 48 hours light red juice is drained off the Pinot vessels for the production of the rosé. After settling and racking, the principal volume of the juice had a cool tank ferment, as in white winemaking, to retain primary fruit characters; while 17% of the final blend underwent barrel fermentation in one year old American oak, adding a valuable textural component and nuances of vanilla cream to the finished wine. Both portions were recombined after ferment to ensure the oak influence was subtle. The wine was then gently fined to polish and round off any edges, stabilised and cross flow filtered for prompt bottling in July, aiding the retention of some natural ‘spritz’.

Processed with minimum crushing of the berries, the musts were held at 10°C for a short cold soak period with the aim of extracting fruit characters and colour from the skins. Fermentation of the different clones from each vineyard block was carried out separately with a variety of French yeast strains. To aid extraction, the ferments were carefully handplunged or pumped over twice daily with temperatures peaking at 30-32ºC. At dryness, the wine was pressed off its skins, and after a short settling time, racked to a selection of new and seasoned French barrels to undergo natural malolactic fermentation and oak maturation until early January 2009. The components chosen for the blend were then racked from barrel, gently fined to polish and round off the wine and cross-flow filtered before bottling in late January. The approach to creating this Pinot Noir is essentially traditional with gentle handling and extraction from harvest right through to bottling – ensuring a fine tannin structure, with no compromising of the rich fruit flavours naturally abundant in WAIMEA’s examples of this variety.

On arrival at the winery, the fruit was de-stemmed with minimum crushing of the berries to an open top fermentation vat; allowing some berries to remain whole results in an internal fermentation in these berries, contributing bright fruit characters to the wine.

The grapes for the WAIMEA Syrah were picked mid-April and come from the clay loam soils of Jeff and Sophie Marr’s Golden Hills vineyard situated on the warm slopes of the Moutere foothills.
Winemaking Notes The fruit was de-stemmed and lightly crushed to stainless steel fermentation vats and inoculated with Rhone yeast. The ferments were regularly plunged and gently pumped-over to encourage gentle extraction of colour and tannins. And temperatures encouraged to peak at 28-30°C for optimum flavour extraction.

At the completion of fermentation, the wine underwent an extended period of maceration on skins until the tannins were considered balanced at which point the wine was pressed off to a mix of new and seasoned American oak barrels. After malolactic fermentation had taken its course, the wines were further matured in oak for 10 months. The wine was periodically racked and returned to barrel during this maturation time. Just prior to vintage 2009 the wine was racked out of barrel and then bottled in April 2009.
