Description

  • Dry style
  • Summer citrus
  • Wild thyme
  • Nicely balanced

"Pristine and brightly expressed, the fragrant bouquet shows Granny Smith apple, feijoa, lemon/lime peel and white floral aromas, leading to a juicy palate that's elegantly weighted and lingering. It's finely textured and focused with a lengthy mouth-watering finish" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jun 2020

Sensitive farming and gentle handling of the grapes have created a vibrant, dry style with flavours of Summer citrus, wild thyme and crunchy river stones all beautifully balanced and delicious.

Le cadet is an endearing French nickname given to a young apprentice learning his craft. John Belsham was once a cadet in Bordeaux where he learnt to make wine. The wine salutes all great mentors whilst the apprentice embraces the responsibility to one day pass the knowledge gained on to another cadet. 

The FOX by John Belsham wines are a collection of vegan, sustainably produced wines with one tree planted for every case sold.

Fox is named after the explorer William Fox who named a tributary island in Marlborough, Foxes Island and in the Southern Alps, a glacier, called Fox Glacier. Sarah Featon painted the botanicals that grace the label in the late 19th century; compiling the most extensive documentation of native NZ flora.

Food Pairing: Enjoy with frittatas, salads, pasta and seafood. I deal serving temperature 12℃.
