Full Description

A benchmark New Zealand white from the historic Havelock Hills in Hawke's Bay.Whole-bunch pressed and wild-fermented in French oak barrels before spending 11 months on yeast lees, this vintage is a brighter, tighter, and exceptionally focused iteration of their flagship white. Colour: Radiant golden hue with brilliant clarity. Aroma: A captivating and complex bouquet of fresh white peach, grapefruit, and lime blossom, intricately woven with toasted hazelnuts, nougat, vanilla, and flinty, wet-stone undertones. Palate: Powerful yet elegant, offering a stunning interplay of lemon curd, nectarine, green apple, and toasty brioche notes. The texture is beautifully creamy and textural, showing excellent structural grip without feeling heavy. Structure: Driven by a precise, juicy line of woven citrus acidity that perfectly cuts through the barrel-fermented richness, leading into a long, satisfying finish marked by a distinct saline, mineral quality. Part of the "Bottle Shop Closure" sale on Grays.
