Tasting Notes

This is a magnificent Viognier that doesn't hold back. Packed full of flavour and intensity, there is nothing shy here. Coming in at a hefty 14.5% alc but by no means 'hot', you are rewarded with a wine of incredible texture and mouthfeel, with layers of honeysuckle and stone fruits, finishing with length that belies its modest price point.

Winery notes (2026 Vintage)
"Vibrant floral, apricot, honeysuckle and lychee aromas lead into a satin textured, fresh and balanced palate with flavours of white nectarine, tangerine and mild spices.

The 2026 growing season experienced a warm and dry start, during Spring flowering, helping to naturally moderate crop for higher wine quality later. The climate then led into an unsettled start to summer before an long hot, dry sustained weather pattern followed, carrying through to the Autumn season. This enabled us to retain acidity and preserve the natural developed flavours, allowing healthy fruit, in perfect balance and flavour, to be harvested, 24th March 2026."

Rated Excellent & 94/100 Cameron Douglas MS, August 2024 (2024 Vintage)
"An enticing bouquet of apricot stone and flowers, a whisper of lees and spice along with an exotic appeal. Plenty of weight with a satin touch, contrasting acid line, honeysuckle and core fruit flavours that mirror the bouquet. A fine example and perfect for Spring 2024. Fabulous value."

Gold Medal & Best Buy, Yvonne Lorkin, Dish Magazine, Best Whites in New Zealand 2025, March 2025 (2024 Vintage)
"“Rich”, “full”, “spicy”, “sexy” were all common descriptors for this wine, a style saturated with sweet orange oil and classic jasmine, with hints of lychee and guava rolling around a core of classic apricot characters. Refreshing and vibrant, it’s a satisfying, saucy thing to sip."

NZIWS 2024 Judges' Comments (2024 Vintage)
"Honeysuckle and lychee aromatics lead into a satin textured, fresh and balanced palate with juicy ripe apricots, white nectarine, tangerine and mild spices."

4 Stars Cuisine NZ & International Other Whites, February 2024 (2024 Vintage)
"Tropical and floral on the nose with ripe fruit and delicate blossom aromas. The palate is well balanced and rich with flavours of ripe apricot and lychee tinged with exotic spices culminating in a refreshing lengthy finish. "
