Description

Richmond Plains - 2017

Skilfully crafted from 100% Pinot Noir vinified as a white wine (without skins). Hand harvested grapes are very gently pressed. Slow, cool fermentation follows to ensure maximum fruit retention. An enticing bouquet of nectarine, pear and apple blossom charm the senses. Crisp, vibrant and  pure, its racy lively style is beautifully appetising. Time on the lees adds a mealy/biscuity dimension to its character. Makes for a fine aperitif choice or as an accompaniment to lighter meals and salads.

Silver Medal – New Zealand Organic Wine Awards (2017 vintage)

Recommended in NZ Taste Magazine, ‘Its faint pink hue hints delicately at its origins, and this wine was the first blanc de noir produced in New Zealand that was made with organic and biodynamic grapes. It’s great lightly chilled as an aperitif’ April 2019 (2018 vintage)

ABOUT THE ESTATE

Richmond Plains winery has been owned by Lars Jensen and his wife Samantha since 2008, fulfilling a long-held dream. Lars has been committed to enjoying and making great wines since he ‘stole’ a sip from his parent’s glass as a child. His enthusiasm remains unabated ‘every bottle, every vintage and every variety is a new discovery…making me eager for more’. They believe that the Nelson region, on the top of the South Island, offers the perfect location for producing fantastic wines, being ‘blessed with the longest number of sunshine hours in New Zealand,  combined with free-draining soils of ancient river beds, perfect for producing vibrant fruit driven white wines and well-structured elegant red wines.’ Comprising just 8 hectares of vines in total, the estate has been organic since 1991. Great wines are made in the vineyard.

Lars and Samantha believe in working with nature in order to nourish biologically active soils and vines so that they produce top quality grapes and wines. Their vineyard is a natural carbon sink as they mulch vine prunings, grasses, herbs, leaves and grape skins back into the soil. This also increases the soil depth and organic matter which is rich in natural fertility and hosts millions of beneficial organisms and insects. The lush green vineyard creates an attractive habitat for a variety of native birds, lizards, butterflies and beneficial insects like ladybirds. Winemaker Steve Gill says, ‘I believe that we make world-class wine in Nelson… it is this blend of creativity/art and science that I love about winemaking….I am delighted to be making organic wine that has been made working with nature. The best wine is made from minimal interference in the winery.’

    E. Fields – July 29, 2016

    Loved the Blanc de Noir

    Such lovely ripe pear, cooked apple flavours&bit of vanilla. Beautiful colour too

  2. Rated 5 out of 5

    Alisma (verified owner) – January 4, 2018

    Perfect with turkey

    We don’t host Christmas every year, but when we do, this is what I like to drink. It has enough flavour to shine above the Christmas lunch and slips down very smoothly.
