3 x Terra Sancta Mysterious Diggings Central Otago Blanc de Noir 2024

Awarded 92/100 Points & 4.5 Stars: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
Awarded 4 Stars: Michael Cooper, Michael Cooper's Buyer's Guide

"It's delicately lifted on the nose, showing crunchy apple, lemon peel, green tea, and a hint of flinty notes. The palate displays fine flow and focus, beautifully supported by elegant texture and bright acidity, finishing crisp-dry and lingering. At its best: now to 2028" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Apr 2025

Terra Sancta’s inaugural release of Blanc de Noir is worthy of celebration. Champagne in colour, the nose is highly aromatic, with vibrant notes of passionfruit, mango, apricot, fresh peach and white flowers. Dancing across the palate, it is exuberant and complex, with tropical fruits, nectarine, quince, apricot kernel, and kaffir lime, along with lingering minerality. Possessing great finesse, flow and a finish that lasts for days, this is an exciting new expression of Terra Sancta’s Pinot Noir. Due to its bright acidity it will cellar for at least seven years.

3 x Terra Sancta Estate Central Otago Pinot Noir Rosé 2024

Awarded 93/100 Points & 5 Stars: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
Awarded 93/100 Points & 4 Stars: Stephen Wong, The Real Review
Awarded 4.5 Stars: Michael Cooper, Michael Cooper's Buyer's Guide

"Pristine and delicate, the wine shows white flesh nectarine, lemon pith, apple, and flinty aromas with a hint of wild strawberry. The palate displays linear mouthfeel and refined texture, splendidly framed by vibrant acidity, finishing long and mouth-watering. At its best: now to 2027" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Apr 2025

"Very pale pink. The nose is delicately perfumed and quite closed currently, reluctantly yielding hints of raspberry, wildflower and dried basil with a savoury undertow. The palate is light but detailed and energetic, with a long persistent note of dried raspberries and red plum over which are arrayed subtle layers of cinnamon, savoury spice, tilled earth, nettle tea and rosehip. No rush with this, it will slowly unfurl in the coming year and continue to develop more complexity in the near-term" Stephen Wong, The Real Review, Mar 2025

3 x Terra Sancta Mysterious Diggings Central Otago Pinot Gris 2024

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

"Finely scented and inviting, the bouquet shows green rockmelon, ripe pear, fig, and white floral nuances, followed by a juicy palate offering silky texture backed by refreshing acidity, making it delightfully drinkable. At its best: now to 2027" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Apr 2025

Light straw in colour, the nose is fragrant with layers of orange citrus, honeysuckle, white flowers, ginger, vanilla and white pepper. The palate possesses weight and intensity with flavourful yellow fleshed stone fruit, ginger, apricot kernel and tangelo zest. Soft acids provide balance and lift. Showing the naturally occurring complexity and vibrancy of the 2024 vintage, it has a long lingering finish. Ready to drink upon release, but will retain freshness for up to 5 years.

3 x Terra Sancta Riverblock Central Otago Chardonnay 2022

Awarded 5 Stars: Michael Cooper, Michael Cooper's Buyer's Guide
Awarded 5 Stars: The Listener
Awarded 95/100 Points & 5 Stars: Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, The Real Review
Awarded 92/100 Points: James Suckling, Jamessuckling.com

"Fruit-focused wine with ginger, apricot, vanilla, oyster shell, floral yeast lees and a toasty, savoury character that is very appealing. Accessible and attractive now with potential to develop well with bottle age" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Dec 2023

Golden straw in colour, a lifted and vibrant nose delivers beguiling floral notes accompanied by summer stone fruits. On the palate the wine is complex and concentrated with flavors of lime curd, ripe peach, yellow nectarine, quince and lemon pepper spice. Riverblock’s hallmark mineral notes and purity of fruit are clearly evident, as is its long, lingering finish. A superb cool climate Chardonnay - bright, joyful and harmonious.
