New Zealand

Central Otago, New Zealand. Lovely aromatics of dark blackcurrant, black doris plum, dried herbs, spices and dried cherries. A lighter beautiful frame showing excellent concentration and complexity. A silky wine with an elegant brightly textured palate showing great poise, balance and finesse. This very special wine will age extremely well – it will reward patience in the cellar...

Central Otago, New Zealand. Complex, savoury and distinctive with a bouquet filled with scents of Otago and variety, soil and ripe fruit. Cherry, raspberry and plum, dried herb, wild thyme and spices of oak. A core of fruit on the palate is accentuated with acidity, the barrel spices and Otago thyme flavours accentuated by tannins. Youthful, complex and lengthy on the palate with flavours that reflect a time and place, variety and excellent vintage..

Central Otago, New Zealand. The palate opens with an expansive softness that coats the mouth, then builds and tightens sufficiently through the finish to give the wine great persistence. No added yeast, no new oak, no fining, no filtration…. in fact, not a lot of anything; just sensitively farmed grapes from our finest Chardonnay parcel. An uplifting wine of great harmony and poise...

Otago, New Zealand. A bright and vibrant nose of spring blossom, mandarin and freshly sliced ginger. The palate flows effortlessly from the aromatic introduction with further flavours of pear and tropical fruit. Rich and textural initially, with the crisp acidity driving a long and dry finish...

Marlborough, New Zealand. A classic New Zealand, off-dry style, with rich fruit and juicy acidity. Complex varietal characters of lemon citrus, mandarin and stone fruit with a long, mineral finish. Harmless crystals may form in the bottle...

Marlborough, New Zealand. A more old world style wine with more texture and complexity compared to the pure styles of Riesling we make for the Framingham bottling. A little bit of extra hang time on our oldest vines, hand harvested, bunch pressed with no juice clarification, fermented with uninoculated yeasts and left on lees for 11 months prior to bottling. Harmless crystals may form in the bottle...

Marlborough, New Zealand. A much more structured style of Pinot Noir when compared to the Framingham bottling. From a vineyard with more clay content than those we have been using for Framingham, left on skins for much longer at the end of ferment. 16 months in French Oak. Harmless crystals may form in the bottle...

Marlborough, New Zealand. An atypical style of Sauvignon Blanc (for Marlborough) that is textural with tastes of earth and mineral rather than fruit. Fruit with good exposure to light was hand harvested from a discrete one acre block on the estate that we call the Quail Trail. Bunch pressed with no juice clarification and fermented with uninoculated yeasts, left on lees for 11 months prior to bottling. Harmless crystals may form in the bottle...

Marlborough, New Zealand. A botrytis affected, low alcohol sweet wine. Extremely concentrated and viscous. Showing varietal characters of zesty lemon, orange marmalade and honey, with a long, mouth-watering finish. Harmless crystals may form in the bottle...

Marlborough, New Zealand. A rich, weighty, textured wine in the style of Alsace. Complex varietal characters of apple, pear and quince with a soft, creamy finish. Harmless crystals may form in the bottle...
