Tasting Notes 
Colour:

Pale green.

Aroma:

Fresh aromas of blackcurrant, green capsicum and fresh citrus.

Palate:

A crisp and refreshing palate bursting with ripe gooseberry and herbaceous nettle flavours, complimented by subtle mineral notes. This wine is ‘lighter’ in alcohol than the standard equivalent, with no compromise on flavour intensity or complexity.

Ageing Potential:

Perfect for drinking immediately or over the next three years.

Winemaking and Viticulture
Winemakers:

Stewart Maclennan 

Winemaking and Viticulture: 

The fruit was sourced from selected vineyard sites located in Marlborough’s Wairau Valley. Grapes were harvested at optimum flavour intensity before the sugar levels became too high. This allowed the production of a wine lower in alcohol but rich in flavour. The grapes were machine harvested at cool temperatures and processed immediately to minimise skin contact. The juice was cool fermented in stainless steel to retain varietal character and freshness. Fermentation was stopped to retain some residual sugar in order to give the wine palate weight.

Awards and Accolades 

93 Points, ***** - Sam Kim: Wine Orbit, 2025

"Aromatic and inviting, the bouquet presents aromas of kiwifruit, green apple and lemon zest, followed by a lively palate filled with juicy fruit flavours. Well structured with fine texture and crisp acidity offering excellent drinking." At its best: now to 2027. June 2025.."
