Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc is often labelled as the brand that kick started the Kiwi Sav Blanc revolution. Without doubt it is seen as an international benchmark Sav Blanc noted for its vibrant aromatics, layers of pure fruit flavours and fine structure.

An enticing wine that will awaken your senses from the very first encounter. Leather, boysenberry and sweet spices combine. The supple palate with its transparent flavours of red fruit and earthy textures leads to a finish that is both balanced and intriguing.

The wine tastes remarkably good: concentrated, aromatic, and complex. The speed with which the grapes became concentrated preserved magnificent vivaciousness. The wines are truly brilliant.

Organic. As always, this was drawn from mature, 35- to 40-year-old vines rooted entirely in the limestone soils of Chavignol. The multiple sites are largely sloping vineyards on the lower flanks of the Chavignol hillside terroirs of Les Chasseignes, Les Longues Fins and La Rue de Vaux. Importantly, Boulay also includes fruit from his younger vines growing on the great hillsides of Clos de Beaujeu, Monts Damnés and La Grande Côte. The juice was naturally fermented and aged for nine months in tank on lees, with a small volume also fermented in a single large wooden cask.

Dog Point is responsible for some of Marlborough's best Pinot noir. This release has lifted aromas of dark cherries stone fruit and violets. The palate is rich and complex with a supple velvety texture.

The 2016 Chateau Latour Martillac White from Bordeaux, France is a stunning representation of the region's renowned winemaking prowess. With a beautiful pale golden hue, this wine entices the senses with aromas of ripe tropical fruits, such as pineapple and mango, along with delicate floral notes. On the palate, the wine is elegant and refreshing, with a perfect balance of acidity and minerality. Flavors of crisp green apples and juicy pears are accompanied by a subtle hint of vanilla and a touch of oak. The finish is long and lingering, leaving a delightful sensation on the palate. This vintage is a true testament to the excellence of Château Latour Martillac, showcasing their expertise and dedication to producing exceptional wines. Enjoy this wine now or let it age gracefully for years to come.

There's a lot to adore about this Cabernet Sauvignon from a beloved family-owned winery. Halliday deemed it worthy of 92 points, and it's picked up four gold medals from Australian wine shows. But if that pedigree doesn't impress you, one sip of this beautiful red will.
