Vintage 2022
Description
Vintage
Located on the western bank of the Waihopai River, Bankhouse is a close-planted vineyard with a myriad of soil types and aspects which provide diverse expressions from which to craft a wine. A dynamic wine with riper tropical flavours from the clay soils and emphasised minerality and freshness from the riverbed gravel soils.
The Marlborough growing season started off well with very little frost pressure during spring. Flowering went without a glitch, due healthy soil moisture levels the canopies looked lush and vibrant. The start of 2022 summer was slightly colder; February was below the long-term average in temperature however the weather settled with a slightly damp autumn.
