    Product description

    The Lloyd family fell in love with this site located in Central Otago and decided to plant vineyards on it. They named the estate Te Kano, meaning seed in Maori. Helped with viticulturist Mike Winter and winemaker Dave Sutton, they produce a small selection from vineyards and barrels, which are often produced in extremely limited quantities.

    Aromas of white peach, citrus and hints of flint, biscuit and toasty oak. A refined and elegant Chardonnay with ripe falvours and a crisp and dry finish.

    Click below to hear more about the wine, direct from wine-maker Dave Sutton:

    Mendoza clone top grafted onto Pinot Gris in the Jerome vineyard, whole bunch pressed to barrel. Rich, nutty and spicy with some cedary, spicy oak with nice fruit expression. Good breadth of flavour, yet still has a compact nature.

  • About the producer

    About the producer: Te Kano

    Te Kano, meaning seed in Maori, seeks to highlight the very best expression of soil and season. The Lloyd family fell in love with this site in Central Otago and decided to buy land in 2015, starting with an established 11 years old vineyard near Felton road. Two years later the first Te Kano wine was born. Helped with viticulturist Mike Winter and winemaker Dave Sutton, they produce a small selection from vineyards and barrels, which are often produced in extremely limited quantities.

    Te Kano Estate comprises three vineyards, Northburn (32ha), ‘Jerome’ (4.6ha) and ‘Eliza’ (4.5ha). The Northburn site, purchased in 2015, is currently under development. The latter two are named after beloved family members and are in Bannockburn. Jerome, with its sandy soils, gives firm tannins to the Pinot Noir, while Eliza located opposite Mount Difficulty, off Felton Road, is composed with richer soils with some clay making plush wines.
