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.
The 2024 growing season has delivered a wine of impressive concentration and aromatic lift, offering spiced stone fruit and tropical notes accented by a subtle hint of dark herbs. The palate is generous and flavour-packed, with a ripe nectarine core supported by bright lemon-lime acidity, leading to a long, lingering finish.
A great wine to pair with seafood, spring salads, goat cheese or grilled fish.
