An aromatic, yet delicate Sauvignon Blanc with elegant aromas of melon and guava topped off by bright gooseberry notes. It offers soft acidity and a chalky mid palate which leads through to a long and rounded finish. This versatile wine pairs perfectly with seafood, Asian flavours and many dishes with herbs and greens – basil, coriander, rocket and especially mint.

A wonderfully bright and vibrant Pinot Noir with a spicy complexity from well-integrated French Oak. It offers aromas of rose petals, ripe cherry and cedar that are complemented by layers of bright red fruits, wild thyme and a chalky earthiness on the palate. Subtle, yet assertive tannins lead through to a textural finish. It pairs perfectly with roast chicken, guineafowl, pigeon or a rack of lamb served pink. Try it with a rare fillet steak, carpaccio or Beef Wellington. Also, dishes with morels and other wild mushrooms for company.

A superb example of Awatere Sauvignon. The Awatere Valley is slightly cooler than the rest of Marlborough, so this crisp and refreshing Sauvignon Blanc is more European in style than is most commonly seen from the region. It is tight, elegant and fresh with aromas of white peach, gooseberry and citrus peel that intermingle with mineral and sherbet notes. This versatile wine pairs perfectly with seafood, Asian flavours and many dishes with herbs and greens – basil, coriander, rocket and especially mint.
