Pyramid Valley 'Fields Of Fire' Chardonnay 2020(2019) Biodynamic. Named after the type of grass growing in the vineyard, this densely planted Chardonnay site sits on a southeast-facing, clay-limestone slope, which has been farmed biodynamically from the beginning. Although recently expanded by one hectare, the original plantings cover only a quarter of a hectare. Like its three sibling vineyards, it’s a vineyard farmed to Grand Cru Burgundy standards or higher. Fire is a cooler, rockier site than th...

Pyramid Valley 'Lions Tooth' Chardonnay 2020(2019) Biodynamic. This 0.4-hectare site, like the wine that results, takes its name from the vineyard’s abundance of dandelions (‘dent-de-lion’, or lion’s tooth in French). These flowers predominate apparently because of the higher clay content in this parcel. It is a steeply inclined, east-facing site on soils that Weersing described as having a “…nut and crumb structure and great mineral fertility”. It’s the classic limestone and clay of the area but...

Pyramid Valley Angel Flower Pinot Noir 2019Biodynamic. Angel Flower is a cooler, more exposed block than Earth Smoke. The shallow soils and north-facing aspect here result in a more floral and aromatic wine, although the weight and shape of the palate have much in common with Pyramid’s other single-site Pinot. The team have also recently planted a little Chardonnay on these soils, recognising its potential as a great white wine terroir.-

Pyramid Valley North Canterbury Chardonnay 2020This beautiful Chardonnay of pristine, sky-clear freshness, was drawn from old vine Mendoza from Waipara vineyards (on both Omihi clays and Rangitata gravels). Hand-picked and wild fermented, the 2019 was raised in French barrels (20% new) for 12 months, before settling in stainless steel tanks on light lees for a further four months. Bottled unfined and unfiltered, leaving the wine with a lightly hazy appearance. Complex mineral nose with hazelnut,...
