Dry on the palate, this wine has crisp, bracing acidity, cool herbaceous fruit flavours, along with gooseberry and passionfruit notes and asparagus-like nuances. Good depth and gentle textured, drying finish. Serve with antipasto and shellfish. Excellent for drinking now and will maintain its quality for up to five years.
Before the palate sensation, the aromas display ripe and fruity peach, melon and a little citrus. These aromas are in turn accentuated by the taste experience of fresh, textured ripe fruit, without the sometimes intrusive complexity of an oak overlay. An elegant wine, with a long and seamless finish.
Pale lemon straw. Vibrant aromas of nectarine, green apple, honeysuckle and a hint of nettle. Lovely precision on the palate with a core of zesty fruit and a long satisfyingly dry textural finish. Food match with Seafood. Cellaring from 1 to 4 years.
4.5 STARS – New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc Tasting – Cuisine Magazine, January 2018
“In 1984 they thought we were crazy to grow our grapes organically. We’ve spent the last thirty years proving that they were right! Now, it seems everybody wants to be crazy, and that’s just what this planet needs. Crazy by Nature – makes perfect sense.”
This is a versatile food wine, particularly suitable with seafood, cheeses and summer salads. A glass of Gisborne Sunshine!
Drink between 2017 – 2020.
A fresh and vibrant fruit-driven style of Chardonnay with emphasis on stone fruit and tropical fruit elements.
The fruit for this wine was taken from specially selected vines. This is a dark and masculine Syrah, designed for long aging.
Complex aromas of violets and ripe black fruits, layered with floral notes and a dark pepper spice. Nuances of fine-grained French oak support the fruit aromas. An initial burst of dark and rich Syrah fruit is supported by very fine tannins and toasty French oak. The flavour is both long and persistent and highlights the impeccable balance between fruit, tannin and acidity.
Pale straw with clear hues, our Water Race Riesling is a dry style with balanced crisp acidity. Aromas of lime and mandarin dominate on the nose with hints of floral and ginger. Lemon, lime and stonefruit flavours show on the palate leading to a long mineral finish. An excellent food wine, full of flavour, so it can hold its own against quite strong flavoured cuisine. Also excellent with fish and seafood.

An off-dry style fermented cool in stainless steel tank after gentle whole bunch pressing. Lifted aromas of melon and citrus fruit with honey and lemon on the nose. A small amount of residual sweetness is well balanced and allows subtle flavours of lime and ginger on the palate.

GOLD MEDAL – New Zealand Winegrowers Bragato Awards 2017
There are attractive vibrant and fresh aromas of summer fruits (strawberries, raspberries, peaches and stone fruits). The palate is soft and rounded, exhibiting the same fresh summer fruits. The ferment was stopped to retain a hint of residual sugar, but this wine is dry in style. The perfect wine to serve chilled with summer platters.

4 STARS – Raymond Chan
On release this wine is a classic reflexion of Drumsara’s Pinot Noir, showing dark and wild fruits of cherry, plum, blueberry and marama strawberry, with an underlying hint of spices – thyme, liquorice and vanilla. The palate abounds in deep fruits, supplemented by vanilla beans and dark chocolate. The fine grained tanins and lively acidity give the wine length aging potential. Enjoy now – 2018.
The 2015 Pinot Rose has a bright pink colour. A very aromatic Rose with aromas of strawberry, raspberry & passionfruit. A generous palate with fresh strawberry, concentration and lingering finish.
