Kelly Washington Waiheke Island Syrah 2022
Hailing from Waiheke Island, a beautiful 20km-long island a short ferry ride from Auckland, this Syrah is wonderfully aromatic with notes of Parma violets and crushed pink peppercorns. It epitomises the luxury laidback vibe of Waiheke, and is obviously an absolute winner with roast lamb.
Te Mata Estate Gamay Noir 2024
Juicy vibrant cherry and strawberry flavours. Light-bodied with soft tannins, it's playful and easy drinking any night of the week.
Folium Pinot Noir 2020
Very seductive style. Medium bodied. Plenty of floral influence of dried rose and violet. More fruit-focused on the palate with juicy plum and raspberry, and a gentle spicy cedar oak. Deliciously drinkable wine with cellaring potential.
Smith & Sheth Cru Heretaunga Syrah 2019
From the home of Syrah in Hawkes Bay this is a classic Gimblett Gravels style – on the nose blackcurrant and liquorice with dusty dry spices, mulberry and plum pudding. The palate is very concentrated with a rich grippy tannins. Give this wine time to open up and pair it with a hearty steak.
Akarua Pinot Noir Central Otago 2021
This Pinot is floral and spicy with a nose of fresh raspberries and blackcurrant, and loads of black cherry and plum on the palate complemented by smoky mushroom notes.
Waipara West 'Ram Paddock Red' North Canterbury 2014
A blend of Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, think dark chocolate, plum, violets, redcurrants, cedar, and cassis. The palate shows serious, sturdy tannins covering the seductive fruit made savoury by black olive.
