A bracingly pure style
Decanter World Wine Awards
Description
Dry, Gooseberry, Passionfruit
"Fresh and bright, the intensely aromatic bouquet shows kiwifruit, feijoa, apricot and lemon zest aromas, leading to a lively palate that's filled with juicy fruit flavours backed by crisp acidity, finishing splendidly long and refreshing. At its best: now to 2026" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Dec 2023
"A bracingly pure style, bustling with fragrant gooseberries, passionfruit and vivacious nettle greens and underpinned by a zesty lemon core of sustaining acidity. Svelte and mouth-watering" Decanter World Wine Awards 2024
"Spicy and vivid character with green fruit, currant leaves and asparagus. Medium-bodied, crisp and chalky with bright acidity. Crunchy and mouthwatering. Vegan. Sustainable. Drink now" James Suckling, Jamessuckling.com, May 2024
A delicate nose of lime, fine tropical fruits followed by a saline mouthfeel and a typically Nelson refreshing finish.
This is how Nelson feels. It’s the adventure that happens between the snowy peaks, the dense forest and the golden beaches. The cool ocean breeze. The art in our community. And a sun that lingers long in the sky. It’s a different way of life lived to its fullest. You can feel it in the air, and you can taste it in our wine.
