German Pinot, fun, fruity , tastes like Pinot ! for not much money ! Pale cherry red colour. There’s an attractive herby, savoury, minerally character to the nose which shows some lightly aromatic red cherry fruit.

This deeply coloured barrel aged Languedoc blend is perfumed with dark cherries, black pepper and vanilla spice. Hints of wild herbs and minerals add to a rich palate of dense dark fruits and subtle oak. It is medium bodied yet well structured with a good backbone of fine tannins and restrained acidity providing an excellent, long finish.

Beautifully presented in its own gift tin a lovely little dessert wine from Chile. Made from 100% Botrytis (or noble rot) affected grapes. Light golden in colour this complex wine reveals a seductive nose of apricot, crème brulee, walnut and toasted almond.

An intense claret coloured Malbec from Argentina with a complex nose with a combination of red fruits such as cherries and a hint of violets. Smooth mouth feel, this is a fresh and fruit wine that carries vanilla and caramel notes from ageing in small oak barrels. A well defined structure and drinking beautifully now.

Spanish variety that actually works really well in NZ. Gorgeous little citrus flowers link arms with melon and peach to dance in the sunshine, always maintaining an air of class. Meanwhile lime lingers in the shadows vying for attention. Imbibe on its own or devour along with a Thai chicken salad

Made reductively in order to maximize the fruit personality of the vintage. An intense nose of peaches, apricots and mineral citrus fruit. The palate is mouth-watering with minerality flinty notes on the finish.

Picpoul de Pinet Les Girelles from Jean Luc Colombo is a bone dry and fashionable great value wine. Perfect as an aperitif or with any sea foods. Overlooking the Etang de Thau, near Sete, on the sunny Mediterranean. This salt Lagoon is home to France’s best oyster beds, which is the traditional partner or this wine. Á votre santé!

This lovely Biodynamic Merlot from the Odfjell team is deep red in colour with hints of violet. The nose is concentrated and deep, with aromas of cherries, figs, violets and white fruit aromas such as apricots and pears. The palate is long, complex and juicy with soft tannins. These wines are easy drinking and fantastic value !

This Carmenere from the Odfjell team has a medley of aromas from blackberry and dark chocolate, to more savoury, meaty notes. The palate displays ripe dark fruits, but also coffee and liquorice. The ripe present tannins offer a solid structure and the layers of complexity keep your attention. The finish is both elegant and enduring.

This Syrah from the Odfjell team has super ripe fruit that manages to combine great depth and richness, with clear and precise underlying acidity. The influence of oak underpins that dark blackcurrant and blackberry fruit and sweet spice. Rich and powerful but still softly textured, this wine is another triumph for Chile. Terrific value !

This organic wine from the Odfjell team is a bight Ruby-red in colour. Red-fruit aromas recall strawberries and plums, along with notes of licorice and anise. All this comes through on the palate with perfectly balanced ripe tannins and a long, refreshing finish.

Great Value new wave Chilean Pinot which is quite a profound experience for the money. It`s made from a selection of young vines mainly sourced from hillside blocks planted on a mixture of red clay and decomposed granite. The wine was aged for a total of 9 months in second use French oak barrels before being bottled with minimal filtration.

A new discovery from a tiny, single hectare of Chenin blanc vines in the Coteaux du Vendômois, whose vineyards lie on the both banks of the Loir, a tributary of the River Loire. Bright stone-fruit flavour and appetising freshness.

The Vineyards of the Vendomois are located on both sides of the Loire. Pineau d` Aunis is a grape variety with a very specific flavour profile. Notably White pepper. It is only permitted variety for use in the making of Rose wines.

Deep purple, with youthful violet on the edges. Blueberries, damson plums and cherries on the nose along with intriguing notes of fresh tea, lavender and Turkish delight. Flavours are intense, fresh and powerful with pure blueberry character, followed by an array of juicy blackberries and strawberries.

Light yellow in colour, with tremendously attractive, complex aromas. The complex, multi-layered nose combines mineral notes with expressive tropical fruits. The effect is fresh and elegant, with toasted notes from oak ageing.

This Stellenbosch Chardonnay from the Kleine Zalze estate, has been crafted from old vines which contribute to the rich complexity and richness of the wine. Along with the extended lees contact in the barrels. With pronounced aromas of ripe pear, citrus and orange peel.

One of our biggest selling reds, the Meerlust Red is made from the fruit that`s not quite good enough for the celebrated Rubicon, but is still an excellent expression of the style. This wine has an intense, opaque deep ruby colour, bright and vivacious in the glass, very youthful.

Classic expression of the dry, gooseberry, grass and passion fruit style of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. Clean and crisp it is bursting with minerality and white stone fruit flavours. Expressive on the palate, finishing with great length. This fashionable white wine is a benchmark by which New World Sauvignons are judged.

Low temperature fermentation has retained the fresh, crisp and aromatic quality of the wine but still allowed its character to shine through. Perfumes of honeysuckle, citrus and apples provide a backdrop to the full, ripe palate and lift the finish. Lovely length and elegance, with a touch of honey on the finish.

Big Easy Cabernet was sourced from the Helderberg region within Stellenbosch, with selected parcels from different coastal regions to complete the blend. The great vintage of 2015 gives the Big Easy Cabernet Sauvignon a slightly more serious side. Rich and elegant with notes of dark chocolate, cinnamon spice and ripe plums fill the glass.

This wine from Domaine des Echardieres is a crisp and refreshing Sauvignon from Touraine, with ripe citrus fruits, baked apple and blackcurrant leaf. The wine has mouthwatering acidity, while six months lees ageing lends weight on the mid palate following through to a mineral finish.

Les Fantasies de Capion Coup de Coeur Rouge is a blend of Merlot, Syrah and Cabernet Franc from the Saint Guilhem Le Desert IGP.

Made using Carbonic Maceration and fermented whole bunch this is a fresh, youthful and fruit forward Rioja, perhaps closer in style to a Beaujolais than what you`d normally expect from the region.
