Sauvignon Blanc
“Classic notes of citrus zest, ripe feijoa, and passionfruit are layered with white peach, blackcurrant blossom, and a fine saline minerality. A vibrant, expressive style that pairs beautifully with fresh seafood, soft white cheeses, leafy salads, fresh pasta, and spice-driven Asian fusion dishes.”
- Tom Turner, Winemaker

“Bright, fresh, ethereal chardonnay with delicate grapefruit, lemon curd, cashew nut, ginger, oyster shell and spicy oak flavours supported by vibrant acidity that helps drive a lengthy finish. An appealing hands-off style.”
- Paul Mason, Winemaker

“Dark, serious purple fruit, verging on roasted cocoa with smoky wood notes. This is destined to unfurl and gain in complexity for more than a decade as it increases in stature. Majestic stuff.” - Stephen Wong MW, The Real Review 2023
Deep, ruby red opening with dark cherries and plum notes, hints of Asian spice and subtle floral characters, the perfect match for Peking Duck or Persian Lamb.

mouth-watering acidity.” - Bob Campbell MW, The Real Review

TE TERA
Pinot Noir
Vivid dark cherries, blackberry and red plum jostle with a hint of spice. On the first sip, your palate is greeted with soft juicy red fruit flavours and spicy notes in the background. Moreish tannins and a velvety texture make for a memorable finish.
