{"product_id":"amoise-amphora-chenin-blanc-2025","title":"Amoise Amphora Chenin Blanc 2025","description":"\u003cp class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\"\u003eThis is an excellent example of Hawke's Bay Chenin Blanc, and it's good to see this relatively rare variety put to such good use. Tropical fruit sits alongside crisp Granny Smith apple acidity, giving the wine freshness and drive while retaining Chenin's wonderfully mouth-filling, textural character. A subtle saline edge carries through the finish, bringing a refreshing lift and keeping everything beautifully in check.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat texture is no accident. The fruit was foot crushed in picking bins and left to soak overnight, extracting complex phenolics before being whole bunch pressed into traditional \u003cem\u003eTinajas\u003c\/em\u003e (amphorae) and neutral 500L puncheons. Fermentation was kicked off using a \u003cem\u003epied de cuve\u003c\/em\u003e - a natural vineyard starter Amy made from Chenin grapes fermented beneath the vines, before the wine was bottled unfined and unfiltered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fruit comes from Ian and Linda Quinn's exceptional Two Terraces vineyard in Mangatahi, which is BioGro-certified organic, with Amy's allocated rows farmed biodynamically since 2020. Another exciting and harmonious release from talented winemaker, Amy Farnsworth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(58, 56, 56);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis is a natural wine - don't be worried if there is a bit of sediment at the bottom or if it's bit cloudy, that's how it's supposed to be!\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Advintage Wine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43646773657689,"sku":"6349","price":43.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0723\/7602\/5177\/files\/6349.jpg?v=1786501429","url":"https:\/\/advintage.co.nz\/products\/amoise-amphora-chenin-blanc-2025","provider":"Advintage Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
