  2020 Rays Road Pinot Noir, Kumeu River

  £2895

  Crafted from the finest section of Kumeu River’s limestone-rich Rays Road vineyard, the 2020 Pinot Noir showcases the exceptional character and elegance that this unique site can deliver. Planted with a selection of superior clones in 2008, the vineyard’s elevated location and mineral-laced soils provide the perfect conditions for producing expressive, site-driven Pinot Noir.

  Bright ruby in colour, the wine opens with fragrant aromas of ripe red cherries, wild strawberries, and delicate floral notes. Subtle undertones of dry leaf and forest floor add nuance and complexity. The palate is supple and silky, with finely woven tannins and a graceful structure. A core of vibrant red fruit is balanced by a refreshing acidity and a distinctive limestone edge, giving the wine a sense of tension and finesse.

  Aged for 12 months in French oak (10% new), this Pinot Noir delivers depth without excess, and a long, savoury finish that speaks to both place and pedigree. Delicious in its youth, it also has the potential to evolve beautifully over the next 5–7 years.

  2023 Rays Road Chardonnay, Kumeu River

  £2895

  The 2023 Rays Road Chardonnay represents a new benchmark for this distinctive limestone hillside vineyard in Hawke’s Bay. Hand-harvested and whole-bunch pressed, the wine was fermented with indigenous yeasts in seasoned French oak barrels, allowing the purity of the site to shine through without oak influence.

  Aromatically vibrant and lifted, the nose reveals crystalline citrus, subtle florals, and a flinty minerality that is fast becoming the hallmark of Rays Road. On the palate, it offers remarkable concentration and textural finesse, with layers of lemon zest, white stone fruit, and saline complexity. A core of bright acidity drives the wine through to a long, mineral finish.

  This is the most complete expression of Rays Road to date, delicious now, yet destined to evolve gracefully over the next 5–7 years.

  2022 South Oaks Sauvignon Blanc, Auntsfield

  £2895

  The 2022 South Oaks Barrel Fermented Sauvignon Blanc from Auntsfield Estate is a beautifully textured and refined expression of Marlborough’s Southern Valleys, showcasing both the region’s pioneering history and its continued innovation. Auntsfield proudly carries the legacy of Marlborough’s first vineyard and winery, established in 1892, and remains family-owned and operated with an unwavering commitment to site-expressive wines. Their Single Block collection represents the pinnacle of this philosophy, wines crafted from small, distinctive parcels that consistently produce fruit of exceptional character and depth.

  The South Oaks block, a mere two hectares nestled at the southernmost, elevated edge of the estate, lies beside a stand of old oak trees and is defined by its unique, free-draining soils of crushed Greywacke rock. This terroir lends a distinct mineral tension and linear structure to the wine, setting it apart from classic Marlborough styles.

  In the glass, the 2022 South Oaks Sauvignon Blanc is fragrant and evocative, offering layers of rock melon, mandarin peel, and lime leaf, intertwined with dry herbs, nougat, and a stony slate character. On the palate, it is taut, fresh, and impeccably balanced, combining dense fruit weight with vibrant acidity and a chalky minerality that drives the wine through to an elegant, sustained finish. The mouthfeel is seamless and intense, offering both power and finesse.

  2021 Omaka Reserve Pinot Noir, Saint Clair

  £2995

  The Reserve wines from Saint Clair represent the estate’s pinnacle wines – the best of the best.   This 2021 has concentrated flavours of black cherry, blackcurrant, Kalamata olive, and perfumed wildflowers, that lead to an elegant palate with a structure reminiscent of finely powdered cocoa. The finish is long incorporating freshly roasted coffee beans, toasty oak and spice.

  Ageing potential: This wine is drinking beautifully now or with careful cellaring will mature into a more complex wine that can be enjoyed for the next 8 to 10 years or beyond.

  This vineyard site has been the foundation for some of Saint Clair’s finest wines. This is the vineyard where Saint Clair Family Estate first discovered the fruit to make their flagship Saint Clair Wairau Reserve Sauvignon Blanc. The fruit is sourced from a single vineyard in the lower Wairau Valley. The Block One site was previously part of the Wairau flood plain and is renowned for its deep, highly fertile, free-draining soils, which have been built up over time and help to produce the intensity of flavour in the resulting wine. The vineyard has a flat profile and is situated approximately three metres above sea level. It is now protected from flooding by a stopbank. Located in a slightly cooler site than the majority of the Marlborough Valley, the vines have a slower annual ripening period. The fruit is carefully monitored during the ripening stage and is harvested during the cooler evenings, at maximum flavour maturity and physiological ripeness.

  2021 Gimblett Gravels Syrah, Craggy Range

  £2995

  A Syrah showing tremendous aromatic lift, with notes of lavender and sweet cherry rising from the glass. The structured palate shows wonderful balance and concentration.

  Hawke’s Bay’s Gimblett Gravels winegrowing district lies on the ancient bed of the Ngaruroro River, which changed course in 1867 to expose the soils for possible viticulture. The relatively low altitude and proximity to the sea yet sheltered from the direct effect of the sea breeze, creates a temperate maritime climate. This location, altitude, and the stony soil’s warming influence make it the warmest site in Hawke’s Bay. The lack of excessive heat in the Gimblett Gravels is also a critical factor as it means the aromatic characters in the fruit, which contribute to the floral notes, are retained. The soils are composed of small to medium-sized greywacke stones interspersed with layers of silt and sand down to a depth of at least 40 metres. The stones on the surface absorb sunlight and heat during the day and then radiate heat at night, enhancing the vine’s ripening capacity. The stony soil structure allows for very rapid drainage after rainfall events; the low water-holding ability the vine’s growth to be controlled. The soils in this locality produce rich, ripe, yet elegantly structured red wines with a distinctive mineral, hot stone and fine dusty character, affectionately known as ‘Gimblett Dust’.

  2023 Pinot Noir, Craggy Range

  £2995

  A delicate, supple and approachable Pinot Noir with aromas of dried lavender and wild thyme combined with red cherry. On the palate, flavours of crushed raspberry and orange zest are layered with savoury undertones.

This soil produces exceptional Pinot Noir, which stylistically shows incredible complexity, a reserved intellectual feel, and great length.

  2019 Pinot Noir, Te Muna Road Vineyard, Craggy Range

  £2995

  A fine, ethereal Pinot Noir with evocative notes of lavender, jasmine, sweet spice underpinned by ripe, red-berried fruits. The silky tannins enhance the flow through to a supremely elegant finish.

  The grapes come from the Te Muna Road vineyard in Wairarapa subregion of Martinborough, in the southeastern corner of the North Island. The vineyard consists of two distinct terraces, the upper terrace comprising very old, stony clay-infused soils perfect for Pinot Noir. The cooler climate of Martinborough ensures the wine is aromatic with steely minerality while the rocky soils impart intensity of fruit. The region’s warm, dry summers and mild winters lead to complex and structured wines with subtle aromatics and an elegant finish.

  2022 Pinot Noir, Rockburn

  £3540

  Expressive aromas lead to a deeply fruity palate displaying notes of red and black cherry layered with rich notes of mocha. Supple, silky tannins envelop the smooth palate through to a long finish. This wine shows classic Rockburn elegance, integrity and balance.

  Rockburn takes its name from the rugged, rock-strewn, burn-scarred landscape of Central Otago. Situated on the 45th parallel, Rockburn shares a climate that is similar to Burgundy. The vineyards are surrounded by mountains to the west, whose seaward slopes are rainforest, receiving 5,000mm of rain per annum. To the east is a barren, moon-like landscape that receives less than 25mm of rain per year. Situated between these extremes, lay the Rockburn vineyards, which are producing Pinot Noir of stunning quality.
