Always consistent and top quality drinking.

Vineyards in the warm Wairau Valley and cooler Awatere Valley (92%) were utilised for this wine. The vineyards are planted on a mix of free draining gravel and clay soils which provide both elegance and structure to the blended wine. This was a cooler Marlborough harvest which resulted in grapes with moderate sugars and excellent acidity.

Winemakers Comment
"This a very aromatic and intensely flavoured wine true to its Marlborough origins. Given the warm harvest conditions, the flavours lean toward ripe tropical fruits, with hints of green fruits and fresh herbs. It is a rich and full-flavoured style with a crisp dry finish which provides freshness and length to the palate."
