  • Horizons of Marlborough Winemaking (SITT 2015): "The Fuder" name comes from the use of 1000 litre German Fuder barrels imported from Germany. The full lees solids go into the fuders and the juice is fermented using natural yeasts from the vineyard. The aim, says, Marcel Giesen, is to show "what's possible with less winemaking."
    It has a very interesting nose, with asparagus and some spirituosity. Very rounded and integrated.
    Very smooth and rounded on the palate: almost starting to lose character, but it's an interesting wine in an attractive style. Possibly "more Marlborough" than the 2011 "The August 1888"
