Grape Varieties

Winemaker Comments

The 2014 Le Phant Blanc is a blend of Pinot Gris (48%), Viognier (47%) and Gewurztraminer (5%) from our coastal Te Awanga Vineyard. The grapes were hand harvested, whole-bunch pressed and co-fermented. A small proportion was barrel fermented and the rest in stainless steel, temperature-controlled tanks. This distinctive blend of aromatic white varieties brings together subtle spicy characters and floral notes with excellent freshness and texture.
