WINE TASTING NOTES:

Hunters Rosé – This Rosé is made in a vibrant, fruit driven style. Lashings of fresh raspberry, peach and nectarine make the wine supremely drinkable. The palate is unctuous, juicy, and dry to taste.

The Doctors Rosé – Our Rosé hits you with an exciting explosion of flavour. Fresh strawberries and ripe red cherry, with just a hint of aromatic herbs like sage and thyme. The wine is so fresh and light and lively it practically dances its way across your palate to a crisp and dry finish. It’s like summer in a bottle.

The Kings Desire Rosé – Made with a nod to Provence, this lighter style rosé has aromas of candied pear and mango with underlying secondary notes of brioche and honeycomb. The focused palate delivers stone fruit flavours while a full-bodied mouthfeel lingers on the palate carrying a juicy acidity.

The Wine Station’s ‘Winery of the Month’ for November is Saint Clair Family Estate.

Saint Clair’s specialist Pioneer Block range comprises small-parcel wines handcrafted to reflect the unique influence of terroir on grape varieties grown within the same region.

4-Pack Selection by Saint Clair Family Estate: Pioneer Block 28 Pinot Blanc / Pioneer Block 9 Riesling / Pioneer Block 11 Chardonnay / Pioneer Block 10 Pinot Noir 

Average price per bottle was $33.50 now $27.50

WINE TASTING NOTES:

Saint Clair Pioneer Block 28 Pinot Blanc – Perfectly balanced for immediate enjoyment, this wine will continue to evolve and reward over the next five years. Ripe citrus and greengage plum layered with citrus and grapefruit peel. This dry, refreshing crisp palate is versatile and will age gracefully with careful cellaring.

Saint Clair Pioneer Block 9 Riesling – A textural palate with chalky phenolics underlying fresh citrus and clover honey flavours. The residual sugar gives a sweet flush on the mid palate, but the wine finishes dry

Saint Clair Pioneer Block 11 Chardonnay – Complex and full bodied with rich flavours of peach, dried fig and coffee bean. A rich rounded mouthfeel is enhanced by warm spice, toasted oak notes and vanilla on the finish.

Saint Clair Pioneer Block 10 Pinot Noir  – Dense, dark and brooding with complex mixed forest berry flavours, coffee, new leather and a rich silky structure. The finish is long and lingering with a combination or charred oak, spice and savoury notes.

My main drive is to make a beautiful food wine that will age with grace, has length and subtle power and will satisfy those who mainly come to the category of chardonnay with a background in drinking white Burgundies. Chardonnay is a winemaker’s favourite — the best white wine for barrel aging and exploring non-fruit complexity. It allows a lot of room for expression of my personal style.

Simon Waghorn — Winemaker

COLOUR/APPEARANCE
Mid straw gold.

AROMA/BOUQUET
Some ripe melon and dried stone fruits with vanilla and butter notes and a subtle mealiness.

PALATE
A wine of very elegant texture with stone fruit, vanilla creaminess, toasty oak, pleasing weight and a long, dry and mineral finish.

Palate – A juicy, textured palate with flavours of rhubarb and red berry with well-balanced acidity and a fresh mineral finish.

A 6-pack selection of our favourite Marlborough wines:

Greywacke Sauvignon Blanc / Toi Toi Brookdale Reserve Pinot Gris / Marisco The King’s Bastard Chardonnay / Hunters Rosé / Nautilus Southern Valleys Pinot Noir / Stanley Estate Lagrein

Average price per bottle is $31.63 now $26.88!

TASTING NOTES:

Greywacke Sauvignon Blanc – Imagine yellow-fleshed peaches, rock melon and blackcurrant – a sponge cake with lemon icing, chamomile and hints of rose petal. This is a delicately perfumed and deliciously ripe-fruited interpretation of Marlborough sauvignon blanc. The palate is both subtle and textural, showing considerable ripeness and concentration, with a crisp and long, juicy  finish.

Toi Toi Brookdale Reserve Pinot Gris – This wine is elegant all round, from it’s pale straw hue to it’s mouth filling, richly textured finish. On the nose it displays lifted lime flower, white peach, pear and ginger with intense flavours encompassing white peach, mandarin and nougat.

Marisco The King’s Bastard Chardonnay – The cool climate nature of this wine is stated by aromas of nectarine, lemon pith and underlying oak. The palate starts strong with stone fruit flavours backed up by a subtle creaminess. Secondary characters of flint and toast help to create interest on the palate while a typical Marlborough acidity draws out the palate with a salivating finish.

Hunters Rosé This Rosé is made in a vibrant, fruit driven style. Lashings of fresh raspberry, peach and nectarine make the wine supremely drinkable. The palate is unctuous, juicy, and dry to taste. We are proud that this wine is Certified Vegan by the NZ Vegetarian Society.

Nautilus Southern Valleys Pinot Noir – The Nautilus Pinot Noir is dark ruby in colour. The nose reveals lifted floral aromas, ripe wild blackberries, cherries and spices. The palate is medium bodied with good structure. Refined and balanced, this elegant wine shows good intensity and a lengthy finish.

Stanley Estate Lagrein – A quality, fruit driven wine, with a palate of Black Morello cherries, red plums, hints of Liquorice, tobacco, leather and vanilla. Soft on the nose, the effect of the oak maturation is subtle and noticeable, giving the wine balance, depth and structure with strong silky tannins and a spicy finish.

An aroma of fragrant ripe peach, toasted spice and subtle vanilla notes.
