DescriptionYoshiaki Sato and his wife Kyoko have quickly made a name for themselves producing some of the most highly talked about and sought after wines in NZ. Yoshi sources only from organically farmed sources, he refuses outright to use any added yeast, enzymes, etc., etc. None of the wines are subjected to fining or filtration. The only thing these wines see is a tiny addition of minimal sulfur pre-bottling. They are pure expressions of place and season. They are made in miniscule quantities.The Sato Chant du Vent Chardonnay is sourced from across the three blocks planted by Yoshiaki and Kyoko Sato on their small vineyard in the shade of Mt. Pisa. “Chant du Vent” translates to “Song of the Wind”, which refers to the whistling noise created by the wind as it hurtles through the vineyard posts. The Satos want this wine, along with the Sur Les Nuages Pinot Noir, to represent their whole farm, so in a way, this is the Siren Song of the Sato vineyard.
