"This wine is a co-ferment of 4 white varieties (see below) presenting a bouquet of lifted florals and fruits spices, some exotic and some familiar. There’s a natural ferment twist with a mineral flinty quality and lees complexity. Lovely on the palate with a mix of the familiar in terms of fruits then adventure with the lees and subtle ginger spice and citrus peel qualities. The flint and mineral play a supporting role. Balanced and well made." - Cam Douglas MS
A charming dry white wine that marries the very best attributes of the aromatic varieties that thrive beautifully together on the Raupo vineyard. Notes of ripe autumnal fruits, citrus flowers and exotic fruit prevail on the nose. The palate shows many dimensions, with great concentration of fruit and structure, balanced with a fine delicacy and elegance, and finishing with a focused acidity.
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.
