Winery notes (2024 Vintage)
"Ripe apple and the fuller figured pear saunter into view with lovely spice and vanilla trailing behind. They chatter in gentle, sweet tones, occasionally cutting the sire with fresh, crisp laughter. Grapes sourced from throughout Marlborough's Awatere and Wairau valleys. Cool, controlled fermentation with select yeast strains help promote bright aroma and crisp flavour."
Judges' Comments NZIWS 2024 (2024 Vintage)
"Beautifully composed and expressed, showing poached pear, rockmelon, fig, and subtle spice aromas on the nose, followed by an elegant palate offering excellent weight and fine flow. Splendidly textured and rounded with a lingering supple finish."
5 Stars & 93/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, August 2024 (2024 Vintage)
"Beautifully composed and expressed, showing poached pear, rockmelon, fig, and subtle spice aromas on the nose, followed by an elegantly expressed palate offering excellent weight and fine flow. Splendidly textured and rounded with a lingering supple finish. At its best: now to 2027."
