Soho McQueen Pinot Noir
Elegantly concentrated flavours of vibrant dark berry and black cherry fruit showing succulence and rich intensity.

Kooyong Beurrot Pinot Gris
Beurrot by Kooyong is comprised of two Pinot Gris parcels: the tiny original 0.24 hectare section annexing the Meres block, and the all-Pinot Gris Beurrot vineyard, which at 2.74 hectares, provides the majority of the fruit. The Beurrot vineyard is planted to a density of 5600 vines per hectare. The grapes are gently whole-bunch pressed directly into all-used French oak barriques, where fermentation takes place without inoculation. After fermentation the wine is aged on lees (without battonage) for 10 months. It is bottled without fining and with minimal filtration.

Lifted aromatics of quince, spiced pears, stonefruits, beeswax and yellow florals.

Felton Road Bannockburn Riesling

The fruit comes from Calvert & The Elms vineyards in the Bannockburn sub-region of Central Otago. The grapes are whole bunch pressed and fermented with indigenous yeasts, with the ferment arrested when the desired balance between acidity, alcohol and residual sugar is reached.
Nanny Goat Pinot Noir
You are greeted on the nose with suggestions of bramble and spice, gradually opening up to reveal red and black berry fruits, spice, leather and subtle floral notes.The palate is soft and supple, with cranberries and sweet red berry fruits upon entry. Fine silky tannins entwine a concentrated core of juicy black cherries, dark berry fruits, dried herbs and cocoa before trailing off to a long even finish.
Saint Clair Pioneer Block 3 Sauvignon Blanc
Zingy grapefruit, blackcurrant leaf flavours and a gentle softness that acts as a ruse to its long finish. Rated by our tasting panel as a must try example of this variety. With over 30 years of experience in the Marlborough region, viticultural pioneers Neal and Judy Ibbotson have single-handedly brought to life one of the most exciting brands in this famed region, well worthy of significant attention. Clearly one of the most exhilarating Sauvignon Blancs we've tasted this year, Block 3 takes the variety and region to another level with marked complexity and dimension. Squeaky clean, full and rich, the palate calls out vibrant flavours of passionfruit, peach and crushed herb with mouth-watering acidity and freshness. Limited Stock
