Tasting Notes
Limes, apples, lemons and feijoas on the nose, with subtle elderflower and floral hints. Upfront sweet entry to the palate challenged by ripe phenolics and acid. Great length, refreshing and enticing. Lovely aromatic white wine.
Waipara - South Island
Waipara, a recognised viticultural region, is situated some forty - five miles north of Christchurch in the South Island of New Zealand. Vines were first planted in the district in 1981 although commercial winemaking really only started in 1990. Waipara has many natural advantages for grape production - long dry summers, sheltered from cold easterly winds by a range of coastal hills but exposed to the hot nor-west winds which help to control disease, and a remarkable range of soils, including shingle, river stones and pockets of clay loams over limestone.

Our couriers deliver normally between 8am and 7pm Monday to Friday. Delivery can be arranged for Saturday at extra cost. Please contact us on 01637 851372 for these costs. They will undertake to obtain a signature but many of our customers provide us instructions to leave the wine in a safe place, as this is an easy way to ensure you get your wine on time. Our couriers will only attempt to deliver the wine twice. A card with their telephone number will be left with you on each occasion. You will then be responsible for making your own arrangements with them for delivery or collection.
We will deliver the wine in its original box if considered suitable for purpose. If not, the wine will be repacked in a sturdy Winedown box for extra security.
We aim to deliver within 7 days of confirming the order.
Payment is handled safely and securely via HSBC. All major credit and debit cards are accepted.
