Posted @withregram • @trinityhillwines Our vines on the Gimblett Gravels are slowing down as the season shifts. Their leaves have turned a rich golden hue, a final show of beauty after a season of hard work and incredible fruit🍁🍂 #gimblettgravels

Posted @withregram • @trinityhillwines One plunge a day keeps the dry cap away🍇
Thanks to the exceptional quality of our Gimblett Gravels fruit, we choose to hand-plunge our Syrah once a day. This gentle process carefully wets the cap, helping to unlock the rich colour, deep flavour, and fine tannin structure that makes our Syrah stand out🏆

There’s an old Chinese proverb about balance and harmony, which translates to something along the lines of “good things come in pairs”, which paints an accurate picture of vintages in Hawke’s Bay over2 months ago

Posted @withregram • @hswineacademy Gimblett Gravels: Home of fine New Zealand wine.
The climate and soils here are perfect for red Bordeaux grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot but it LOVES Syrah and Chardonnay too.

Where can one get a tee like that?
Our gravelly soils act like a thermal blanket, absorbing heat during the daytime and releasing it at night. Clever. #gimblettgravels

We love dirt! Our famous soils are mostly ‘Omahu’. They have a fine sand to a fine loamy sand topsoil, overlying stony gravels mixed with varying proportions of sand, and horizontally bedded lenses of non stony sand between the stony layers #gimblettgravels

The soils in the Gimblett Gravels are so stony, that in 1988 a concrete company applied to mine a large chunk for gravel! Fortunately, our vignerons had a great legal result, ensuring the land was planted in vines 🍇
