Banks Peninsula and North Canterbury. Pinot Blanc + Pinot Noir.
The majority of this wine is Pinot Blanc made to echo Chardonnay, the late addition of 25% early picked direct press Blanc de Noir Rose from the Barbour Vineyard on the slopes of North Canterbury steered the wine toward a more delicate and lively wine mirroring a Coteaux Champenois. All barrel fermented with minimal battonage. 6 Months in oak.
White peach, strawberry, coconut and lifted white floral aromas with soft acidity and persistent minerality.
If you like full bodied Italian style reds particularly Amarone then this is a really good everyday drinking alternative. Especially suited for winter meals or perhaps bbq lamb in summer. I’ve just finished ordering some more.
A great range to select from but scored 4 for a 2 day delivery in AKL & challenges in processing my order online.

The Calmel and Joseph, Villa Blanche Malbec, Syrah and Merlot are exceptional wines for day to day drinking. Although different styles of wine, they are all delicious. You won't be disappointed.
