Pyramid Valley North Canterbury Sauvignon Plus 2021
$36.00Out of Stock
The 2021 Sauvignon + North Canterbury is so named because it isn’t just Sauvignon Blanc; there’s a touch of barrel-fermented Pinot Gris here too. What’s more, 7% of the Sauvignon was fermented on skins in clay amphorae, the remainder in both tanks and barrels. The result is a dry, textural white with a rich midpalate. […]

Pyramid Valley North Canterbury Chardonnay 2020

Rippon Gewürztraminer 2020
$55.00Out of Stock
Wild fermented, whole bunch pressed and 12 months on lees, this may be Rippon’s finest Gerwurz yet. Floral, delicate musk, sage, honeysuckle, lychee, red apple, citrus and white flowers. Sensual palate, so juicy and textured with layers of detail and a heighted sense of refinement. Lovely shape. Cut and corseted by deep acidity, off which […]

Te Mata Estate Chardonnay 2022
$30.00Vibrant white-gold, Estate Chardonnay ’22 dazzles with bright lemon blossom and concentrated white peach. On the palate, all the ripe Hawke’s Bay stone fruit on offer softens to mascarpone and macadamia, with barrel-ferment notes of toast, biscuit and woodsmoke.

Rippon Lolo’s Mature Vine Riesling 2019
$75.00I have never tasted a riesling to match the intensity of Saar, until this encounter with Rippon’s 2019 Lola. We were lucky enough to have the better part of a bottle, which we drank over three days. Never for a moment did the wine loose a skerrick of it’s power or titanic fruit. Aromatic, with […]

Reed White Heart Riesling 2023
$36.00“This is the first year I have stepped out of Geelong to find Riesling fruit. It seems to be that Riesling is a hard grape to come by these days, especially in my home GI. Until I can grow a large enough crop of my own in Torquay, I have decided to venture out to […]

Reed Siren Riesling 2023
$45.00“This wine is called ‘Grape Siren’ because before I had ever heard of the Waitaki Valley, its wines found me in a glass. It was as though I was smacked in the face with a handful of crushed limestone while being swept below the sea and stung by an electric eel. I knew exactly what […]
