Winery notes (2023 Vintage)
"Pretty and lifted on the nose, with notes of rain-washed crushed petals and dusky hedgerow fruit, and the merest hint of spice-cupboard intrigue.
The impression on the palate is rounded, with fine and well-integrated tannins and a fresh acidity reminiscent of a fridge-cold blueberry. There are notes of summer fruits here, alongside a darker damson character, and a touch of subtle vanilla.
Grapes sourced from our own Fromm Vineyard, one site in the Waihopai Valley and from three sites in the Brancott Valley. No herbicides, pesticides or systemic fungicides used. Only approved natural fertiliser applied. All vineyards certified organic (BioGro)."

5 Stars & 94/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, February 2024 (2022 Vintage)
"Offering fabulous fruit purity with elegant complexity, the wine shows dark cherry, olive, clove and toasted almond notes, leading to a flowing palate that's juicy and supple. Beautifully weighted and smooth with finely infused tannins, finishing persistent and alluring. Certified organic. At its best: 2025 to 2034."
94/100 James Suckling, March 2024 (2022 Vintage)
"Beautiful aromas of strawberries, raspberries and spices such as nutmeg and sage. Medium-bodied with a solid core of fruit and tannins that follow through to a linear finish. A little chewy now but will soften in three or four years. Better after 2027."
Rated Excellent & 94/100 Cameron Douglas MS (2022 Vintage)
"A bouquet of energy and brightness, variety and expression. On the nose and palate a wine that releases flavours of fresh and preserved cherry, dried spices and barrel flavours. There’s a definitive soil quality with clay and stones adding complexity and breadth. Tannins are still settling into the position and acidity ensures energy and longevity. A lovely example that simply needs more time to reveal it best self. Great drinking from 2025 through 2033+."
