"Richly fruited and beautifully aromatic with apricot, baked fig, warm spice and floral aromas, it’s succulent and wonderfully weighted in the mouth offering plush texture together with juicy acidity, finishing impressively long and delectable. Mouthfilling and complex with excellent structure and persistency. At its best: now to 2030" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2023

"Rich, weighty wine with vanilla, white pepper, dried mandarin peel, ginger and spicy oak flavours. It is an intriguing wine—tantalisingly complex with layers of different flavours supported by gentle acidity and fine, drying tannins" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Jul 2023

"A gently perfumed bouquet with scents of white flowers - some exotic, white fleshed orchard fruits and spice. A saline moment adds complexity and intrigue. Lovely weight and texture on the palate with a satin touch, contrasting acid line and warming alcohol. Flavours of citrus and white fleshed fruits reflect the bouquet as does a floral, white spice and saline quality. Well made, balanced and ready to drink. Best from 2023 through 2029" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Feb 2023

The Māwhitipana Marsanne is a seamless, medium bodied wine that flows beautifully into a smooth finish, with notes of burnt orange rind. An inviting nose of oriental spice, including cloves and dried citrus peel with notes of honeysuckle. A wine as dreamy as its sustainable origins. Grapes handpicked by owners.  A limited vintage with only 48 cases produced.

The Māwhitipana Marsanne had a run as dreamy as its origins. This vintage was long, calm and dry. A long hot season with little rain produced small berries and low yields with lots of concentration. A settled harvest produced ideal picking conditions.
