Catalina Sounds Pinot Gris
Lifted aromatics of quince, spiced pears, stonefruits, beeswax and yellow florals.
Blue Pyrenees Midnight Cuvee
This stylish sparkling has an elegant, delicate nose of green apples and citrus fruit. The palate is crisp and lively, the flavours in the lemon and lime spectrum with attractive minerally and acidity running through. A very classy fizz.
Black Cottage Marlborough Pinot Noir
Garnet in colour, the wine displays aromas of cherry cola, violets, star anise and pink peppercorns. The palate has black forest chocolate notes, tobacco leaf, Danish liquorice and spice. Berry fruit flavours are supported by grainy tannins and a juicy finish.
Seresin Sauvignon Blanc
Amongst the sea of quality Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc that is flooding Australia, Seresin Sauvignon Blanc stands out as having that something extra: perhaps it is the wild yeast ferment; perhaps the partial barrel ferment; or perhaps it is the 5 per cent of Semillon in the blend. Whatever the secret, this wine has body and finesse that raises it above its Marlborough peers.
Mahi Sauvignon Blanc
This wine shows an array of fruit characters, ranging from citrus through to tropical notes. This is complemented by some secondary characters from the natural yeast ferments and also some barrel aging. The palate has an elegant structure with a creamy, textural mid-palate and a long finish.
Black Cottage Chardonnay
A percentage of the grapes were handpicked and whole bunch pressed, with about 20% seeing French oak, the majority well-seasoned. A small percentage worked through malo with a substantial amount of button age to build mouth feel. The colour is golden straw. An aroma complex nose with layers of stone fruit, mingling with brioche. The palate is full-bodied and richly textured with fleshy stone fruit. This is an elegant Chardonnay with a lingering, lively finish.
Ara Single Estate Pinot Noir
Comes with the added complexity and textural riches you get with the Ara vinos. Brooding raspberry and boysenberry flavours emerge from a soft and savoury wine, rounded out with elegant and refined tannins.
Black Cottage Sauvignon Blanc
This Sauvignon Blanc has a lively nose, full of lychee, gooseberry and a touch of the peapod. The palate shows great purity, with excellent fruit concentration leading to a mouth-watering finish.
