<p>Product Details Please note that wine images and vintages are for illustration purposes only. The label design, vintage year, and packaging may vary depending on the producer’s updates and availability. While we make every effort to ensure accuracy, the actual bottle received may differ slightly from the image shown.The Tinpot Hut story began in 2003 when winemaker Fiona Turner and her husband Hamish established their own 20 hectare vineyard in Marlborough’s emerging sub-region of Blind River. Naming her range of wines after a historic Marlborough mustering hut, the ‘Tinpot Hut’ links the area’s sheep farming past with its current state as one of the world’s most dynamic wine regions. Fruit is sourced from Fiona’s ‘Home Block’ and is supplemented by grapes from selected vineyards. Fiona is assisted by Matt Thomson, a friend and colleague with whom she has worked for many years. 2017 was a challenging vintage for wine growers as conditions were wetter and cooler than usual. This reduced yields by approximately 9% compared to 2016. It also pushed harvest dates back for all varieties. The final wines are more restrained on the nose and the palate but still display distinctive varietal characteristics. Flavours of white peach mingle well with subtle peppery spice notes. Mineral complexity gives this wine a clean and crisp appeal. – 2017 was a challenging vintage for wine growers as conditions were wetter and cooler than usual.
