Gold Medal – The National Wine Awards of Aotearoa New Zealand 2023
Not only has this $12 wine won a gold medal at one of New Zealand's top wine shows, it has also been featured as one of Decanter UK Magazines 'great value white wines to try under £20'. At our price of only $11.99 this well and truly qualifies in the 'great value' category. But value is not all this wine does well, what's in the bottle measures up very nicely also. Bright, light and fresh it shows florals, stonefruit, tangy citrus and mineral. A fab alternative to crisp dry Rieslings or Pinot Gris.
Winery notes (2023 Vintage)
"Life’s a beach with Albariño. Originally grown on the Spanish coast, this expat is living a new life growing down under in Gisborne, New Zealand. An aromatic upstart that will duel for your affection with juicy peach and melon flavours to be so more than your holiday romance."
90/100 Natalie Earl, Decanter, Great-value white wine to try under £20, September 2024 (2023 Vintage)
"This aptly named wine – Left Field – is certainly compelling. Its character is big and bold, rich, ripe, tropical and a little buttery. Yet in the mouth it's so racy, there's so much zest and zip with a seriously mouthpuckering finish."
Good Value, JancisRobinson.com, April 2024 (2023 Vintage)
"Key-lime pie and white-flower aromas lead into a broad, creamy palate beautifully balanced by crisp acidity. Long and perfumed."
