The Donaldson family has always been seriously involved in winemaking and winemaking for more than 40 years. Its founder, Ivan Donaldson, planted the first Canterbury vine in 1976, and then established Pegasus Bay in 1986, along with his wife Christine. It is a real business family, where their four children and their respective couples are also managing various aspects.

The harvest was deliberately delayed until the berries developed a small botrytis. The cloudy juice was fermented in old oak barrels to emphasize its complexity and feel in the mouth without altering its aroma and taste. The naturally cool winter temperatures protected the vibrant varietal characters that make this wine so distinctive and special.

The grapes were grown on stony terraces, well drained in the Waipara Valley, using environmentally sustainable methods.
