“Appealing Sauvignon Blanc with ripe yet tangy flavours
including gooseberry, grapefruit, red capsicum and
orangeblossom. Quite a weighty and moderately
concentrated wine with an attractive texture that
deserves extra points.”
93/100 – Bob Campbell, MW, 2013
“It’s intensely flavoured and lifted on the nose displaying
lemon/lime, grapefruit and toasty characters. The
palate is vibrant and punchy with crisp acidity
and nicely weighted mid palate. An impressive
Dry Riesling (2 g/l) showing lovely balance
and appeal.”
Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
“Pristine Pinot Gris with lovely fruit purity and classic
fresh pear juice, elderflower and chalky mineral
flavours. Lingering a linear with impressive
power. Made in an off/dry style but with
enough acidity to generate a fairly dry
finish. Lovely wine.”
Bob Campbell, MW
“Very attractive Chardonnay with intense, mouth-filling
sweet fruit flavours. Tree fruits such as peach and
nectarine are flattered by subtle oak, bready
yeast lees and some toasty
bottle development.
Very impressive.”
Bob Campbell, MW
“Top flight Marlborough pinot, lovely texture, some
depth in the fruit and just starting to express
itself as a classical wine. One of the best from
the region and Isabel’s slightly different
soil and terroir show perfectly in this
wine. Very good stuff”
Peter Saunders, F&B Magazine
“This magnificent, Sauternes-like sweet wine was made
from late-harvested, fully botrytis-affected sauvignon
blanc grapes, wild-fermented and aged in barrel. It
has the right concentration of complex, toffee
apple, boiled lolly and honey flavours
– balanced by zingy acidity”
