"Fragrant and instantly appealing, the wine shows green rockmelon, fig, feijoa and lemon zest aromas on the nose, followed by a splendidly flavoursome palate offering excellent fruit purity and intensity. Delicious and long on the finish" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
"A bouquet and palate of classic Marlborough SB with flavours of gooseberry and cape gooseberry, grapefruit, apple and green papaya. A decent squeeze on the palate from youthful and vibrant flavours, a backbone of acidity and fruit concentration that reflect the bouquet. Some basil and sage herb moments layer in more of the Marlborough story. Moderate length with best drinking from 2023 through end of summer 2025" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Jan 2024
Succulent fruit balanced by lovely, subtle and flinty minerality. This is a seductively powerful and moreish wine yet understated by its elegance. The nose is all about floral and nettle notes. In essential Awatere fashion the finish is lively, crisp and lingering with a delicious elegance and minerality.
Food Pairing: Enjoy it on its own or with seafood, salads or creamy cheese.
