Notes

2020 Harvest was another stand-out vintage for the Nelson region. Starting with a warm spring, it continued on through a long, hot and very dry summer and autumn resulting in superb, clean, ripe fruit packed with intense flavours perfect for making sensational wine. Our limited release Sauvignon Blanc was fermented and aged in seasoned oak barriques. The ripe stone fruit and subtle spice notes on the nose are reflected in the creamy, soft palate brimming with apricot, peaches and nectarines. The mouthfeel is juicy and lush with a full, lingering finish. An opulent wine of great finesse. Vegan friendly wine.

Food Pairing

Great with white fish, shucked oysters and grilled new season asparagus.

Cellar

A wine best enjoyed now but will cellar well for a few years.

Reviews & Awards

5 Stars - Sam Kim, Wine Orbit 2022

By Sam Kim

Beautifully styled and elegantly complex, the wine shows nectarine, crunchy apple, flint and oatmeal notes on the nose, followed by a wonderfully weighted palate displaying excellent focus and persistency. Beautifully textured and layered with a lengthy engaging finish. At its best: now to 2028.
