A meteorologist's perspective on Madeira wine and its climate

For the coastal city of Funchal, on the south side of the island, they have mild winter temperatures with average temperatures of 16.7°C and warm summers with average temperatures of 23.2°C. Funchal yearly rainfall is 627 mm while the north side of the island is the windward side of the island and tends to get higher rainfall than Funchal.

Vineyard ferments & Waipara Pinot Noir at Greystone : Waipara wine guide

Maceration is generally lighter which gives a lighter colour in their Waipara Pinot Noir and more gentle extraction of tannins. Two clones of Pinot Gris are used, which Dom says gives it complexity, and after two years in the bottle it shows aromatic richness with bright fruit notes and exotic spice and is full-bodied. This Chardonnay comes from two blocks, one block at the bottom of the terrace made with the B95 clone (which typically gives stone fruit character, and Dom vinifies in tank) and one block with the Mendoza clone (which typically gives more power and concentration, which Dom vinifies in barrel). The wines is so much lighter in colour (compared to the estate or single block Pinot Noir) but has many layers to it.
