This elegant, reason-ably priced Chardonnay is great value. Made from fruit from the Estate’s Riverview vineyard, it shows peach, melon and citrus flavours, with notes of nuts, and a smooth texture. A portion was sponta-neously fermented in oak, underwent MLF, and aged for nine months.Origin: Marlborough, New Zealand Varietal: Sauvignon Blanc 100% Alc. 12.9%Lawson’s Dry Hills is currently the only New Zealand wine producer (as of 2023) to hold both ISO14001 (Environ-mental Management) and ISO14064 (carbon zero) accreditations, accounting for the environmental impact from cultivation through to distribution. 10% of the wine was fermented with wild yeast in old barrels, and the lees stirred while aging, to give added complexity.Origin: Yarra Valley, Victoria, Australia Varietal: Savagnin Alc. 13.9%Winemaker Rob Dolan produces the Black Label range in small quantities from fruit from select growers that attract his interest in different vari-etals and terroir. Savagnin is a white grape from the Jura region in eastern France characterised by its high acidity. Fermented in oak barrels and aged on lees for 9 months (30% new barrels) to bring out the minerality and crisp acidity.Origin: Frankland River, Western Australia Varietals: Shiraz 85% /Touriga Nacional 5% /Malbec 10% Alc. 14.8%Rocky Gully is the well-balanced and approachable second label from Frankland Estate. Plum, blackber-ry, and cherry fruit with spice notes, good acidity and fine tannins adding a refreshing cool-climate feel. Small amounts of Touriga Nacional and Malbec add complexity and enhance the aromatics.Origin: Martinborough, New Zealand Varietals: Syrah 56%/ Merlot 31%/ Malbec 7%/ Cabernet Franc 6%Alc. 13.7%A blend of non-Pinot red varieties from Martinborough Terrace vineyards. Ata Rangi made its first Celebre blend in 1984, inspired by Syrah in Bordeaux blends from times long ago. In 2021, yields were lower due to frost damage during flowering, but thanks to good weather in April, late-ripening varieties were harvested at full ripeness. In the past few years it has been mainly Merlot, but in 2021 it is 56% Syrah.Origin: Casablanca Valley, Chile Varietal: Pinot NoirAlc. 14.0%The long-awaited EQ range Pinot Noir is now avail-able ‒ EQ expresses the balanced equilibrium of climate, soil, and vines. The grapes are 100% biody-namically grown in the cool Casablanca Valley, on granite soil 10km inland from the coast. Hand-picked, naturally fermented (35% whole bunch) and aged for 12 months in French oak, it shows typical cool climate acidity with a firm mineral feel.CODE12677CODE12743NEWCODE12754NEWVC’s New Arrivals for Spring
