1 of only 5 Double Gold medal Pinot Noir at New Zealand's largest wine competition! A succulent, approachable Pinot Noir with an outstanding price value ratio.

A fleshy, satisfying wine made in the Framingham way - an elegant "feminine" style of Pinot Noir with fragrance, charm and grace. Wine for those who just want to be themselves.

A delicious example of good quality Waiheke Syrah from this proven and much admired producer. From an exceptional vintage.

A rich, ripe wine with blackberry and cassis framed by graphite and spice. This wine is drinking beautifully now and will be ideal with a summer barbeque.

'Rhone-meets-Bordeaux', an enduringly popular Merlot/Syrah/Cabernet blend first produced in a lean-to shed in 1986! Célèbre has always had its own distinctive style as a bright, high-energy red with real concentration and a rich, mouth-filling texture.

New design, same great quality. "One of the great-value pinot noirs of the world." declares Nick Stock, one of Australia's best known wine critics. 20 years ago Ata Rangi named this special Pinot Noir "Crimson" in support of Project Crimson, a charitable trust working to replant and preserve native red-flowering pohutukawa and rata trees throughout New Zealand.

A great value Pinot Noir from top producer Neudorf. "Tom's Block Pinot Noir, is really hitting the spot in terms of quality, drinkability, and affordability." - Jamie Goode.

A total passion for Mahi. The aim is to make wines of the earth, showing complex savouriness characters aligned with both red and black fruit notes.

Representing different vineyard sites and encompassing three sub-regions in Marlborough (Brancott, Waihopai & Wairau Valley) this Pinot Noir clearly expresses a FROMM winery style. A bright and pure Pinot with outstanding 95 points.

From a stellar vintage in Marlborough for Pinot Noir. What an effort! All fruit for this wine was hand-picked, hand-sorted then destemmed and grape (!!!) sorted as to ensure that only pristine, perfect Pinot grapes make it into the fermenters. A silky, subtle, earthy Pinot Noir, that is simply delicious.

Escaroth is a unique north-facing, sloped, dry-farmed site in the middle of Taylor Pass. Vines were planted in 2001 and a dragon meets you at the entrance. It has the biggest diurnal range in all of Marlborough and is frequently drier than other sub-regions. 400 cases produced.

From Waiheke's breathtakingly appointed Man O' War. Their flagship blend is mainly Cabernet Franc and Merlot, with Petit Verdot, Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon. Complex with subtle power, harmony.

From the highly respected flagship range. The generously proportioned red blend consists of Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon. Beautiful aromas of cassis, blackberry, exotic spices, graphite, mushroom and a touch of salt liqourice.

A silky Pinot Noir with red berries, some spice and violet notes.

One of New Zealand's best Syrah: a supremely classy Syrah, rich and full bodied but with the elegance we love in cool-climate Syrah. From one of Waiheke Island's top producers. Clearly the only thing you should dread here is missing out on this world class Waiheke Island Syrah.

Falstaff's Top 100 Red Wine Icon. This Pinot Noir has quite a cult following from New Zealand Pinot fans. Enjoy this New Zealand highlight. 

Limited availability. The little brother of icon wine Larose. This intense red is the most immediately approachable of the Stonyridge estate wines. From an outstanding vintage.

A Central Otago and indeed New Zealand benchmark. The farm voice of a distinct parcel of land: Rippon. On the western board of Roy's Bay, Lake Wanaka, Rippon's north-facing escarpment forms the meeting point of terminal moraines and coarse gravels, all based in schist, on which some of the region's earliest vines were planted. A wine issued from all of the fully developed Pinot Noir vines growing in this land.

A New Zealand benchmark. Clayvin Vineyard is one of New Zealand's most famous vineyards. It takes its unique name from its claybased soil profile. The clay soil gives the Clayvin Pinot Noirs richness and generosity and an immediately appealing soft texture. Currently the best Marlborough Pinot Noir 2019 according to Bob Campbell MW.

Consistently one of New Zealand's best Pinot Noir. A pure, complex, and lavish Pinot Noirs, that leaves you extremely satisfied. Created by American wine guru Ted Lemon.

Last bottle. Detailed, sleek, fine, glide, animated femininity. From a unique parcel within Rippon, Emma's Block faces eastward on the lakefront where ancient clay reefs run laterally through fine schist gravels. Made by one of New Zealand's top producers.
