Esk Valley Artisanal Collection Albarino

This is a full and rich wine with crisp acidity providing length and deliciousness. Its flavours tend toward preserved lemons, pear, apple, apricot and tropical fruits. It is delicious as a young wine but will gain further complexity with time in the bottle. It is an ideal accompaniment to seafood dishes.

SILVER MEDAL, IWC 2022

This is a single vineyard wine from the Two terraces Vineyard situated inland at Mangatahi. The Albariño plantings are located on the upper of the two gravel river terraces formed by the Ngaruroro River. Two clones of Albariño from both Spain and Portugal are planted, each providing its own distinctive characteristics. Planted in 2018 these vines are intensively managed and yields kept low in the pursuit of quality wine.
