Wine Reviews

This mouthwatering version features intense lemon curd, lemon balm and grilled citrus notes at the core, with crisp, zingy acidity and accents of lemon blossoms, lemon verbena and oregano. A note of crunchy sea salt minerality lingers.

From a coastal vineyard in Hawke’s Bay, there’s prettiness, even delicacy, to the lemongrass, salt and floral notes, with a toastier, richer underbelly to pad things out. Mid-weight, it’s precise and focused with lovely tension and textural interest.

A medium gold color, this coastal wine offers classic varietal aromas of melon and peach with a creamy, toasty underbelly. It’s well balanced with textural interest and a lift of citrusy acidity, resulting in a food-friendly drop that’s a great example of the Hawke’s Bay Chardonnay style

Restrained and discreet aromas of lemon peel, oyster shells, talcum powder and orange blossoms. The palate is light- to medium-bodied with high-tension acidity and an underlying power. Very mineral and polished. Delicious.

Mineral and white pepper with oyster shell aromas to the cooked apple and pear character. It’s medium-bodied with lovely phenolics and focus.
