"Pure, ripe, lifted, varietal and enticing bouquet. Aromas of fresh green herbs are melded with tropical fruits and white peach, fresh red apple and grapefruit show off the cooler climate influences. Delicious on the palate with a salivating lush core of fruits accentuated with acidity but leaving room for a mineral almost silty soil signature. Vibrant and fruity, herbaceous and fresh a lovely wine for drink from summer 2023 through 2026+" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, 2022

"It's brightly fruited and beautifully aromatic on the nose showing green apple, apricot, kiwifruit and lemon zest aromas. The palate delivers excellent fruit intensity with vibrant mouthfeel, finishing lingering and mouth-watering. Delightfully expressed and immediately appealing. At its best: now to 2025" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Aug 2022

This vibrant aromatic wine is bursting with classic Sauvignon Blanc aromas of herb, passionfruit, currant and gooseberry. The palate is concentrated and lively with ripe citrus and stone fruit flavours and a crisp mineral finish.

The fruit for this wine is sourced from established vineyards in Wairarapa that consistently produce excellent Sauvignon Blanc grapes. The naturally low yields and cool dry climate produce fruit with intense flavours and ripe acidity.

The focus in the winery is to capture the pure fruit flavours coming from the vineyard. The fruit was harvested at optimum ripeness and gently pressed before cool fermentation with a variety of yeasts that expressed the pungent thiol aromas in the fruit.

Food Pairing: We love to drink this wine any time or with seafood and pasta dishes.
