Accolades
NZ Wine Rater (Steve Bennett MW, Lynette Hudson): 93/100. Lifted and vivacious with classic aromas of fresh nettles, broad bean and cut grass with more exotic notes of passionfruit flower, lemongrass and coriander. A bright, delicate, mineral palate with crisp, tangy acidity and a salivating piquant finish - quintessential summer drinking.
Cameron Douglas MS: 92/100. Pungent, fruity, tropical, vibrant, herbaceous, fresh and new. Aroma and flavours of passionfruit and red apple, fresh green herbs and mango. Sweet acid line with a core of fruit, moderate weight and complexity, lengthy and well made. Best drinking from 2021 through 2024.
New World Wine Awards: 92/100 & Silver.
Tasting Note
Bright aromatics with sweet herbs and ripe citrus tones. Distinctive red and yellow capsicum on palate back up by an array tropical fruit. The wine is dry, with a mouth-watering line of fine acid and flavoursome length. Easy to drink on its own, or to match with food.
