1 x Delta Marlborough Pinot Gris 2018

Awarded Gold Medal: China Wine & Spirits Awards 2019

Awarded 93/100 Points & 5 Stars: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Apr 2019

"The wine is instantly appealing; the inviting bouquet shows ripe stone fruit, fresh pear, floral and subtle spice aromas, followed by a vibrant palate that is fleshy and smooth. The wine offers pristine fruit flavours together with textural mouthfeel, finishing long and tasty. At its best: now to 2021" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Apr 2019

Pale gold colour in the glass. The 2018 Delta Pinot Gris shows aromas of pear, quince paste and warm spices. On the palate, expect pure and elegant flavours or fresh white pear, soft spices and a flavoursome dry finish.

The fruit was sourced from vineyards in Marlborough's Lower Wairau Valley and the Omaka Valley regions. The 2018 vintage started with cool spring weather, which extended the length of flowering, leading to open bunches with reduced potential disease pressure during early autumn rains. Lower crop levels led to increased intensity of flavours within the grapes. Ripening steadily throughout the growing period, this fruit was continually monitored until the right balance of flavour and physiological ripeness was attained.

Food Pairing: The 2018 Pinot Gris has an elegant structure, with vibrant fruit notes, soft spices and creamy dry finish. An ideal wine as an aperatif, or paired with lightly spiced Thai cuisine.

Alc: 12.5%

1 x Delta Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2019

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: New Zealand International Wine Show 2019

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Marlborough Wine Show 2019

AWARDED 5 STARS & TOP 10: Cuisine Magazine

AWARDED 94/100 POINTS & 5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Nov 2019

AWARDED 92/100 POINTS & 4 STARS: Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Sep 2019

"From a single vineyard in the Dillons Point coastal area where the heavy, water-retaining soils responded well to dry conditions during the 2019 vintage. It's a punchy, flavoursome Sauvignon Blanc with tangy, pink grapefruit, gooseberry, capsicum and passionfruit flavours. An appealing wine in a crisp, dry style. Good value at this price" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Sep 2019

"It is superbly fruited and intensely aromatic on the nose showing passionfruit, white currant, kaffir lime and lemon zest characters. The palate is wonderfully concentrated and flavoursome, delivering terrific fruit power as well as purity, making it a gorgeous drink" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Nov 2019

Pale lemon colour in the glass. Aromas of grapefruit, blackcurrant bud and zesty lemon peel. An intense and weighty palate showing characterstics of blackcurrant, lemon zest with a salty mineral expression of the finish.

Selected from a single vineyard in the Dillons Point area of Marlborough. Close to the ocean, this sub-region experiences long hot days balanced by the effect of cooling sea breezes at night. The 2019 vintage started with cool spring weather which extended the length of flowering, leading to open bunches. A long and hot growing season led to lower crop levels with increased intensity of expressive tropical characteristics. Ripening steadily throughout the growing period, the fruit was continually monitored until a balance of flavour, acidity and physiological ripeness was reached.

During a cool evening, the vineyard was machine harvested and the grapes quickly transported to the winery where they were destemmed and pressed. After settling, the juice was fermented at cool temperatures and racked off lees quickly to retain the vibrant fruit flavours and freshness of this Sauvignon Blanc.

Food Pairing: The 2019 Sauvignon Blanc has an expressive and weighty palate, with intense aromas of grapefruit, black currant and a hint of sea salt. An ideal match with pan-fried scallops, soft Goat’s cheese or Marlborough mussels.
