Sam and Mandy Weaver's Churton Vineyard spans a ridgeline bordering the Waihopai Valley and Omaka's high country. Corofin's Pinot comes from 0.5 hectares of the northerly 'Clod Block', a northeast-facing terrace planted around 20 years ago. Managed organically (Bio Gro), it's the most inland and southern site that Corofin source from. Therefore, it's the most extreme with a high diurnal range. It's often picked some ten days after Cowley. Another point of differentiation is the soil here--this parcel has plenty of gravel running through the clay.
Italy’s most famous sparkling wine could not be missing from the range of Corte Giara wines. The traditional aromas of apple and pear are accompanied by the freshest floral and citrus notes. On the palate, the sweetness is quite forward but is well balanced by the upbeat and succulent acidity that accompanies the tastebuds in a long, satisfying finish.
