Kim Crawford Small Parcels are micro-cuvées representing the very best of what New Zealand's pristine, cool-climate vineyards can produce. Hand picked and locally fermented. A long, cool ferment and extended post ferment maceration soak lead to beautiful colour extraction and rich, deep fruit and spice flavours. The grapes were pressed before undergoing malolactic fermentation and barrel ageing in 25% new French oak to add further complexity and texture.
