2025 No Devices

100% petit manseng from the magnificent Churton vineyard

This wine is as rare as hen's teeth. There is currently just over 1ha of petit manseng planted in Aotearoa New Zealand and Churton vineyard have 60% of it, so we were absolutely over the moon when the Weaver family offered us the chance to work with this wonderful grape here in NZ. We believe this variety is one of the greatest white grapes on the planet, but it is very little known outside of its home region of Jurançon in the foothills of the Pyrenees

Petit manseng when kept as a single variety is typically made into off-dry and sweet wines- but we've made a dry version

The 2025 No Devices was picked with 60-70% botrytis, yielding an exotic and bewilderingly complex wine with Sauternes-esque aromas of candied orange, marmalade and caramel, balanced by powerful acidity and vibrant varietal notes of pineapple, mango and jasmine

This is a truly unique wine with enormous cellar potential, rewarding those who have the patience to hold it

Unfined, unfiltered, no added sulphites...
