Te Kano, Maori for seed, celebrates the lone surviving Kowhai tree affectionately known as 'Old Man Kowhai' on the Northburn slopes above Lake Dunstan — on land Te Kano Estate calls home. Proprietor Rhonda Lloyd fell in love with the land and lifestyle of Central Otago.
The Land Series pays homage to unique terroirs, crafting limited quantities capturing the essence of Bannockburn, Northburn, and Waitaki soils.
Made in extremely small quantities, the Land Series wines seek to highlight the very best from each of the unique subregions within our family of vineyards.
This Gamay is a refection of the unique terrior of our Northburn site. Fresh red berry fruits aromas combine with a distinctive dried herb nose, giving a forest floor quality to the bouquet. Fresh, schisty tannins and lively acidity entwine around a core of vibrant red fruits and savoury, spicy top notes. This is a complex and intriguing wine revealing layers upon layers as it unfolds in the glass.
