WINE MAKING PROCESS
Gardo & Morris Brut is produced using the Tank Method (Charmat), where the secondary fermentation, responsible for the wine's effervescence, takes place in large, pressurized tanks. This technique is chosen to preserve the wine's inherent fruitiness and aromatic intensity. The grapes are sourced from Marlborough, a region known for its suitability for Sauvignon Blanc. The winery's approach includes a commitment to organic viticulture, reflecting a philosophy of producing elegant wines that express their origin.
