Situated 45 degrees south and influenced by the striking mountains, rivers and lakes, Central Otago experiences all four seasons. This seasonal variability combined with low fertility free draining soils, provides the ideal “tension” required to grow outstanding Pinot Noir. For Mumm Central Otago Blanc De Noirs, 100% Pinot Noir grapes were hand harvested entirely from grower owned vineyards, located in differing sub-regions of Central Otago (45% Tarras, 27% Alexandra, and 22% Gibbston Valley). Grapes were whole bunch pressed extracting juice in the gentlest manner, preserving the fruit’s natural elegance. Parcels were fermented separately using natural wild fermentation or traditional Champagne yeast, in either seasoned French Oak cuves or stainless steel and left on ferment lees whilst undergoing full malolactic fermentation. The extended lees contact contributes to the aromatic complexity and the malolactic fermentation softens the acidity to add richness to the palate. Assemblage of the final blend consists of carefully selected components of Pinot Noir which show strength and intensity. A carefully selected amount of aged reserve wines were blended to add extra complexity, before secondary fermentation. The result is a cuvée that showcases the purity of aroma and flavour balanced by vibrant natural acidity, giving the wine brightness and elegance. • Gift Box pictured may not be available for all online orders.

Established in 1940 and formerly known as Coche-Bizouard, the Domaine Fabien Coche is dedicated to cultivating the exceptional qualities found in the renowned wines of Burgundy. With a commitment to traditional methods, the Domaine Fabien Coche carefully tends to every aspect of the winemaking process, from vineyard work to bottling, ensuring the production of wines that are truly exceptional. Fabien Coche, a fourth-generation vigneron, took over the management of his family's prestigious domaine in 2005, following in the footsteps of his well-known relatives. The Coche-Dury family, formerly part of the same estate until 1940 and now overseen by Fabien's cousin Raphael, holds a prominent position among Burgundy's esteemed families. Fabien has become a prominent figure in the wine industry, achieving notable success in the current generation. Showcasing his expertise and passion, Fabien's impressive collection of vineyards covers approximately 11 hectares, encompassing Meursault, Monthelie, Pommard and Auxey-Duresses. Crafted from two parcels aged between 30 to 60 years old, located in Meursault and Pommard, this wine showcases the essence of the region. The grapes are carefully destemmed and during the vinification process, there is no plunging of the cap or remontage. Instead, larger 300-liter barrels are used for aging, allowing the wine to develop without overt oak influence. To preserve the vibrantly fresh fruit, the wine is bottled before the harvest in August. The result is a wine that exudes vibrancy, elegance and charm, surpassing expectations for a basic Bourgogne level. Fabien's meticulous approach to vinification focuses on capturing finesse, fragrance and purity, and he has achieved remarkable success in doing so.
