Scott Base. Our Place. Scott Base Vineyard owned by Allan Scott Family Winemakers has diverged from its original single Central Otago Vineyard with the inclusion of a prime site Vineyard in Marlborough for the production of premium Marlborough varietal wines.

VITICUTURE Vintage 2022 was a very “new” normal growing and harvesting season for a lot of vineyards. Having secured a team of talented cellar hands, the first fruit was met with a great deal of enthusiasm and excitement. A good flowering period, steady and at times very heavy rainfall throughout the season had us employ every bit of viticulture knowledge and finesse. It was crucial to be on top of our vineyard management programme.

VINIFICATION Minimal handling was used to retain all the stunning aromatics and flavours in the wine. Once it was gently pressed to tank, the fruit parcels were cool-fermented with wild yeast. An extended period on lees helped build even more texture and complexity, this wine was then bottled to capture the natural characteristics of the vineyard.

SERVING SUGGESTION Best enjoyed now chilled on its own, or last of the summer produce
