Halcyon Days Alcyone 2022
Te Matau a Māui / Hawke's Bay, Aotearoa
Sangiovese
10.5% ABV.
Amy and Olly Hopkinson-Styles are two of our biggest heroes in the world of wine – dear old friends, brilliant winemakers and tirelessly passionate communicators within the global community of organic winemaking.
Alcyone is 100% sangiovese from the Osawa vineyard, situated in the Mangatahi subregion of Hawke’s Bay. It was picked a little earlier, then partially destemmed before macerating in tank for 10 days. As is Amy and Olly’s custom, everything was done in tank in an effort to retain purity, freshness and tension.
This is a wonderfully delicate and precise expression of the variety – light-bodied and refreshing, with amazing clarity of red fruit and gentle herbaceousness.
