Mission Estate Greenmeadows Vineyard

Planted:                           First vines were planted in 1910                      

Size:                                 16.5 hectares                                                 

Varieties:                        chardonnay, sauvignon blanc, pinot gris, semillon

Range contribution:     primarily Estate range

Special feature:

Being fairly close to the sea means that vineyard temperatures are moderated during the day by the afternoon sea breeze. At night the temperatures are comparatively warmer than inland sites due to the warming influence of the Pacific Ocean. This relatively small diurnal variation (difference between day and night temperatures) provides perfect conditions for ripening these aromatic varieties.
