Brief note, I was not able to write a full description. My first chance to try the Antipodes Blanc and it is a brilliant wine. The grapes were sourced from a small one hectare block on the Kopuwai Delta vineyard, located in the Pisa sub-region of Central Otago. But the wine is very much serious Côte de Beaune in style, underwritten by typical, bright, persistent Pisa acidity. A collaboration between Paul Pujol of Prophet's Rock and François Millet for 35 years at Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé. Only 158 cases made. Composite cork. I would expect it to drink to 2030+, adding greater complexity.
