Proudly family owned, the Borthwick vineyard is an established vineyard situated in Gladstone, the heart of the Wairarapa. Producing quality wine for over a decade, Paddy, an experienced wine maker, has gained a reputation for producing consistently great wines. The twenty seven hectares of vines bordering the Ruamahunga River are growing on stony, free draining, alluvial soils, with a micro climate giving warm daily temperatures, cool nights and low rainfall; perfect conditions for producing distinctive, quality wines. 

This is about the purity of Pinot Noir with spicy savoury and bright, juicy red fruits. It is medium-bodied with soft velvety tannins, a mix of tart and sweet cherry fruit with a chocolate touch to the lightly oaked finish and a spicy zestiness to the lingering aftertaste

Pairs beautifully with grilled quail, roasted chicken, or the richness of pork shoulder. It also complements glazed salmon and even a decadent pizza topped with sweet potato, balsamic onions, and soppressata.

Press Reviews

93 Points

Fresh, youthful and vibrant bouquet with pinosity and charm. Aromas and flavours of crunchy black cherry, sweet boysenberry and raspberry flesh, sweet oak spices and vanilla. Firmly textured reflecting the youthful side of this example, firm tannins and plenty of acidity, but also a core of red berry fruit flavours to reflect the variety and vineyard origins. Delicious and fresh, just requiring some cellar time to settle and develop. Best drinking from late 2023 through 2029
