Silver - NZ International Wine Show 2014
5 Stars - "Plush and succulent, this is a gorgeous pinot gris showing all the easy appeal of the variety together with fruit concentration and rich texture. It's filled with white peach, pear and floral aromas with a delicious palate that's beautifully flowing and impressively long on the finish.." - Sam Kim
A fresh & pure style of Pinot Gris sourced from some of Marlborough's oldest low cropped vines. Vibrant ripe pear, lifted floral & lemongrass aromas are balanced by lively fresh, focused acidity & a wonderful mineral, salty finish.

New to the Winesale.co.nz range, Astrolabe wines are highly regarded and epitomise quality from Marlborough.
Aomas of full ripe melon and dried stone fruits and fig, light nut meal and brûlée notes, with some light leesiness.

The palate has gentle creaminess and elegant texture, with tropical and stonefruit flavours.

 Aromas of lime rind and pink grapefruit, ripe gooseberries, lemongrass and lemon balm The palte is full bodied, round, concentrated wine with some green tropical fruit and peach, and a crisp dry finish

This intriguing Chardonnay is a finely balanced blend of our very best Hawkes Bay vineyards. Full, rich and creamy, it tantalises with intense apricot and grapefruit flavours, complimented with butterscotch and flinty fresh lemon-lime notes. Maturation in quality oak barrels has further contributed spicy nutmeg and vanilla accents. Complex and vibrant, this wine is immediately appealing, and will also greatly reward cellaring over the medium term.

This powerful yet elegantly styled Gewürztraminer offers attractive rose petal, lychee and Turkish Delight aromas. The palate exudes an unctuously smooth oily texture, lovely fine freshness, and delightful spicy apricot and melon flavours. Enticing! Immensely enjoyable on its own, or paired with your favourite Asian dish. 

Crafted from fine Merlot grapes grown exclusively in the Gimblett Gravels Winegrowing District, this superb single-vineyard wine exudes quality. Delicious
blackberry and plum aromas and flavours abound, supported by liquorice, spices and a hint of black tea. Fourteen months ageing in predominantly French
oak barrels has bestowed a silky smooth palate. Immensely enjoyable now, it will also reward judicious cellaring.
