2023 Bryterlater Brambles Rose, North Canterbury
Pinot Noir + Syrah + Riesling.
The majority of this wine is made from the Luxston Vineyard in the Eyrewell Forest, Oxford. A cool, low yielding site that sits atop Lismore silt loam. 80% of the wine is 2023 vintage Pinot Noir, partially direct pressed and partially carbonic and raised on full lees in seasoned oak barrels. 20% of the wine is 2022 Syrah/Riesling blend from North Canterbury. The result is a wine with all the hallmarks of a soft and mineral Pinot Noir rose but with a sweet blackberry tart complexity from the rhythm guitar of syrah.
Made for slurping, not sipping.

Bryterlater
Bryterlater wines are made with intent, honesty, and an abundance of respect for the process. The winery works thoughtfully in the vineyard, using organically farmed grapes from select sites within the North Canterbury region.
The winery adheres to minimal intervention practices, in an endeavor to offer wines that speak for themselves, rather than the ego of their maker. They acknowledge whatever the season gives, and use it to guide the process and decisions.
Bryterlater finds great joy in making youthful vibrant wines released in the spring, but also relish the discovery of longer aging styles which demand more nurturing and patience before coming into their own.
The brand intends to create deeply considered, juicy wines that capture the energy of the vineyard, and bring immense joy to the beholder.
