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.

A wine with great concentration. A fragrant lift of spiced stone fruit, tropical fruits with a hint of dark herb notes. Packed with flavour, a core of ripe nectarine and lemon-lime acidity, finishing with passionfruit, lychee, and black-currant.

A great wine to pair with seafood, spring salads, goat cheese or grilled fish.

The Hunting Lodge wines are making an undoubtable mark on the New Zealand wine scene. Pete Turner, the winemaker, found his love and passion for wine after a trip around Europe. Now, after 15 years in the industry, Pete is proud to be a part of something he believes is great for the Auckland wine community. 

The Expressions range is a celebration of New Zealand’s most iconic varietals – inspired by the land, the people and you. Loaded with interest and character, the wines are only the beginning of the story.

Vivacious - a wine which expresses the full spectrum of Marlborough. From the sunbaked, ancient riverbeds of the Wairau to the cool, dry terraces of the Awatere Valley - tropical punch meets herbal intensity and varietal purity. A passionfruit, pineapple and grapefruit medley dressed in dried sage, blackcurrant bud and gooseberry. The big, mouth-filling palate is restrained by chalky acidity which gives length and structure while subtle minerality and capsicum notes bring both complexity and Sauvignon typicity.

Te Awanga Estate is a family owned wine business. It was born out of a love of making wine and of the place they call home, Hawke’s Bay. In 2006 they began searching out great vineyard sites that would eventually supply the grapes to make the great wines of the future. They have an enduring purpose: to grow, harvest and craft world class wines. And smile while doing it.

A dry and warm summer with cool nights has produced a wine with pungent aromatics and crisp acidity. Gooseberry, lime and guava aromas lead into a rich, mouth filling palate that tastes of passionfruit, grapefruit and a lovely chalkiness. The wine is crisp and bright with a lingering finish - a classic Sauvignon Blanc.

Pair with Spring and Summer salads with homemade vinaigrettes. Also great with seafood, shellfish or white meats or a refreshing dip in the pool.
