Our Marlborough 2010 Sauvignon Blanc keeps on winning

New Zealand's Sauvignon's have always been favourites worldwide, and we have long been known as one of the best places to aquire one from. To prove that, our Waipara Hills 2010 Sauvignon Blanc has captured 5 medals including gold and 2 silvers, and we are sure it wont stop there. It follows our tradition of sav's with a generous palate full of rich tropical fruit combined with nettle and snow pea flavours, providing crisp acidity and a long finish.

Our 2009 Central Otago Pinot Noir truely satisfies

The Wine Front, Garry Walsh had this to say about our Central Otago 2009 Pinot Noir after giving it 93pts "Rich cherry fruit, a little like jam, only not so sweet along with spice and some earthy beetroot flavours. It's medium bodied but envelopes you with a big hug of Central Otago generosity tinged with a little bitterness via dried herbs and bitter chocolate. Balanced acidity and alcohol with fine tannin and a long dry finish. Goes long on drinking satisfaction and value. It's the sort of wine you can easily settle in for the nigh with, if you take my meaning."
