Kevin Judd was their founding winemaker and made the first 25 vintages, making him a true icon of the industry. A man of few words but many ideas, in 1993 he created a single vineyard wine, Cloudy Bay Greywacke Vineyard and that wine became their Cloudy Bay Te Koko label. Judd though registered the name Greywake, which is a type of sandstone found throughout New Zealand, thinking he might use it one day, but not expecting to as he was happy in his job.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-userformat='{\"2\":5057,\"3\":{\"1\":0},\"9\":0,\"10\":0,\"11\":4,\"12\":0,\"15\":\"Cambria\"}' data-sheets-value='{\"1\":2,\"2\":\"Few' name=\"\" in=\"\" is=\"\" type=\"\" role=\"\" by=\"\"\u003eEventually though owners LVMH offered him an ambassadorial role and feeling that his time as a winemaker was far from over, he set up on his own in 2008 under the name he had registered 15 years earlier.

It was simply one of the best wines I tasted, white or red, in the entire two weeks that I was visiting. It reminds me in some ways of a young, extremely pure version of Chablis. There is plenty of citrus and even stone fruit notes, all brought together by a distinct mineral core. The wine is incredibly lean and taut now, and with extended bottle age this will continue to blossom.

The foundation of the Diamantis Winery began at the start of the 20th century, when Dimitrios Diamantis’s grandfather hand-grafted the domaine’s first vineyard on the family land. Sadly, by the 1970s, winemaking in the region was in decline and only a few of the old vines had survived. Fast forward to the 1990’s when enter Dimitrios Diamantis, , the third generation winemaker, and his business partner, George Papageorgiou, began an energetic drive to protect and bring back those nearly-forgotten grapes, saving enough genetic material to replant 18 ha on the slopes of the Magoutes area. The Magoutes Vineyard (named for the magenta plant), is perched on rocky limestone soils at 750-890 m in elevation. The vineyard is farmed organically, assisted by the extreme climate, which minimizes environmental stresses from insects and diseases.
