A medium bodied wine with well-developed flavours of cassis and walnut with an earthy complexity. This well-cellared wine shows a flavour development and smoothness that makes it delicious drinking at BBQ’s or with pizza.

Using a combination of estate and off-site fruit has enabled us to produce a Syrah of purity and vibrancy.  Suggestions of blueberry and cranberry define the nose along with a savoury complexity from extended barrel aging on full lees.  This savouriness also contributes weight to the palate, the textural edge comes from suave and supple skin tannins.  Enjoy now of cellar for 3-5 years.

Lifted notes of old-fashioned rose, apricot and orange blossom provide a clear varietal direction whilst the partial barrel fermentation adds suggestions of Manuka honey and contributes to the textural balance of this opulent wine.

Vibrant blue purple colour.  Snappy aromatic characters of crushed rosemary, violet and a savoury toasty complexity.  The delicate perfume on the nose is in part due to a small percentage of viognier 2.5% in the blend.  The palate is mid weight with a bright fresh acid structure and supple tannin.  Enjoy now as a red wine match to spicy and aromatic dishes such as Moroccan lamb.

This complex blend showcases a great vintage on our Havelock North vineyard. Dark and brooding on the nose with black doris plum, aromatic jasmine and underlying mineral notes of graphite and tar. The palate is broad and soft with supple front palate tannins and soft vanilla oak enveloping the fruit.

Dense and exotic aromas of apricot, musk and rose.  Finer nuances of cardamom, cumin and orange blossom all add to the complex tapestry of this wine.  Without interruption, the aromas flow through onto the palate adding yet more layers and interest.  Poached stone fruit, cinnamon and star anise along with a crystallised ginger note are a few of the many fruit and spice notes to be found.  Full and rich  this wine is best enjoyed on its own or with spicy Asian cuisines

Bright aromas of white fleshed nectarine along with a tropical honey dew melon nuance.  A suggestion of ground oats and fresh cut meadow hay round out the aromatic complexity. The palate has a saline purity from predominantly cool fermentation in tank and a degree of richness from partial barrel fermentation and nine months of lees aging.  Drink chilled down with rich seafood.  As a wine of concentration and focus, we expect this wine to flourish in a cool cellar.

Pale red with a violet hue. Toasty and sappy notes on the nose with an enticing dark cherry and strawberry fruit compote note. The fruit and winemaking combine to provide a wine of lightness, delicacy and interest. On the palate there is a deceiving level of power, delivered in unison with the usual subtle Pinot Noir flavours and layers of complexity.

drink now or cellar for three to four years.

Dense aromas reminicent of black currant and a floral yet spicey complexity. Aged in new and used barrels for 18 months which have both contributed flavour richness and maturation to this wine. Full bodied with a fine tannin structure. Enjoy now or cellar for five years.

Gold with flecks of green.  Candied aromas of boiled sweets and citrus peel lead through to a honeyed tropical core of apricot and melon.  A subtle waxy nuance-typical of Semillon-adds interest and complexity to the nose.  The palate continues the theme of opulence with its peach syrup consistency kept in check by a crisp apple acid structure.  This wine is a great option at the end of a meal with or instead of desert.

Baked nectarine, browned butter and freshly squeezed grapefruit on the nose along with smoky notes of toasted almonds and nuances of crème caramel. The palate is fine and pure with licks of citrus and bolts of wet gravel minerality.  This purity and linearity continues to develop through the palate towards a finish of savoury salinity. Drink over the next 3 to 5 years.
Serve with seafood dishes (oysters, crayfish), poultry and lighter meats such as pork or pate.

Tightly coiled aromas of cassis, plum and bramble with underlying notes of graphite and sauvoury complexity. The palate shows excellent focus, which delivers both power and richness whilst retaining a degree of elegance through the tannin and acid balance.
