This unique Blanc de Noir was made from 100% Pinot noir grapes, grown on the family owned vineyard. Ripe hand picked fruit & gentle winemaking have given a wonderfully balanced wine. The elegant Champagne colour resulted from minimal skin contact prior to a gentle whole bunch press. The juice was fermented in stainless steel to retain the varietal & fruit characteristics. The wine shows delightful aromas of peaches & cream, with stone fruit, pink grapefruit & a hint of honey on the palate. Best served slightly chilled.

Limited stock. Especially low yielding ripe hand picked fruit, gentle winemaking & extended maturation in French oak have resulted in a complex & powerful wine. It has aromas of ripe cherries & plums, a rich & silky smooth palate & a long spicy finish. A great example of one of the best Central Otago Pinot Noirs
- Best rewards are gained by careful cellaring.

A big, swinging bottle of pinot that delivers an impressively complex & concentrated pinot noir, with plenty of capacity to deliver over the next few years; a handy wine indeed. Aromas are of gently fragrant, floral fruits & show a lovely, spicy, exotic thread, gentle game meats & more. The palate has layers & layers of flavour, & really nicely designed oak structure augments the juicy, long & assertive pinot noir fruit flesh. Great persistence here. Limited stock. ...

Has a rich, bright, golden yellow hue & an aromatic, complex nose of lime marmalade, guava & melon fruit & toasty oak nuances. The palate is medium to full bodied & rounded, packed with luscious tropical fruit flavours, a delicious mineral streak & well integrated, nutty oak which lends a creamy texture in the mouth. Finishes soft & succulent. Rich seafood dishes or perhaps with lighter game birds or poultry. 100% Chardonnay. ...
