Mt. Difficulty – Roaring Meg Pinot Gris, Central Otago, 2015
£12.95
This wine has aromatics reminiscent of a fruit cocktail full of stonefruit, melon and green mango. These characters are richly replicated on the palate, with a full textured mid palate and an off-dry finish.
88 Points Wine Enthusiast (2011 vintage)
“Loaded with fruit—apricot, pineapple and passion fruit—this is an attractive, medium-bodied Pinot Gris with just a hint of sweetness. Enjoy it over the next year.” J.C. (8/1/2012)

Wonderful fragrance of ripe red cherries and berries with a touch of spice, this has benefitted from a little bottle age. Good concentration of fruit and texture with some gamey spicy oak influence. Mouth-filling wine with sweet fruit and a lingering flavour. Sealed with a screw cap to retain the vibrant fruit characters.

Lowburn Ferry – Home Block Pinot Noir, Central Otago 2013
‘Very perfumed nose, lifts out of the glass like a puff of talc, wild cherry ground into fine powder. Much less ethereal on the palate than the nose would suggest. Fleshy sweet-berried fruit with an earthy flavour that draws from a rounded start to a leaner tightened finish. The acidity really builds on the end. The oak muscles in a little towards the end as well, giving a savoury and slightly cedary note to bring it to a close. New World charge, Old World restraint.’ – 17/20 Tamlyn Currin, JancisRobinson.com
We are delighted to introduce this super-premium Pinot Noir to our range. Lowburn Ferry are a leading Central Otago producer and their Home Block Pinot Noir represents some of the very best this now world-renowned region is known for.
The 2013 is drinking wonderfully right now and will continue to evolve for a few years yet. Enjoy on its own, or with poultry, duck, lamb, and venison dishes.

Esk Valley – Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough, New Zealand 2016
This is a very intense and powerful wine. True to its Marlborough origins, its flavours are a mix of ripe tropical fruits, citrus and cooler notes of green fruits and fresh herbs. It is rich and full bodied but a crisp dry finish provides freshness and length.
Enjoy with fish, shellfish, salads and oriental dishes.
