Winery notes (2024 Vintage)
"Rows are planted north-east to south-west at a 43 degree angle rather than the typical north to south. This leads to slightly greener characters in grapes on the south facing side and more tropical characters in grapes on the north facing side. The resulting wine is therefore multi-dimensional and complex. The site is cooler to some other areas of the valley and hence slower to ripen. The distinguishing flavours are crushed herbs (often associated with coastal Awatere) and an absence of sweaty characteristics.
A pungent green spectrum of blackcurrant bud and fresh herbs with a hint of salt. The palate is fresh and vibrant with layers of blackcurrant and tomato leaf combined with notes of green capsicum, fleshy white peach and dried herbs. A mineral sea salt thread is evident on the lingering finish."
5 Stars & Number 2 Cuisine NZ Sauvignon Blanc Tasting, January 2025 (2024 Vintage)
"A lovely mix of herbal and thiol aromas on the nose in great intensity. That intensity is matched on the palate which has lots going on. Green gooseberries and fresh vibrant fruit flavours with a well-balanced acid line that is juicy, mouthwatering and long."
5 Stars & 95/100 Sam Kim Wine Orbit, January 2025 (2024 Vintage)
"A powerful expression, the enticing bouquet shows kiwifruit, kaffir lime, fresh fig, apricot, and jasmine aromas, leading to a intensely expressed palate delivering excellent weight and persistency. Wonderfully composed and expressed, offering fabulous drinking. At its best: now to 2028."
