Meet the producer Nanny Goat Vineyard takes its name from the wild goats that roam the mountainous Central Otago terrain. The estate focuses on small, hand-selected parcels to highlight the distinct character of each site, crafting wines of precision, depth, and elegance. Production The wine is made from carefully selected parcels identified for their colour, flavour, and structural properties. Hand-harvested fruit is gently destemmed into small open-top fermenters, retaining a large proportion of whole berries alongside 20% whole bunches. Natural fermentation with extended post-ferment maceration lasts 30–32 days on skins. Pressed to 225L French oak barrels (25% new), it matures for 14 months. Bottled unfined and unfiltered to reflect the vineyard’s purity. CELLARING POTENTIAL: 10+ years.
