WINE TASTING NOTES:
Greywacke 2014 Wild Sauvignon – Imagine an almond friand full of white nectarine, blood orange and rock melon – laced with linseed, tarragon and lightly smoked tea. This is an alternative style that is both intricate and textural, a delicious concoction created by fermenting sauvignon blanc entirely with naturally occurring yeast.
Greywacke 2014 Chardonnay – An alluring combination of cumquats, peaches and yellow grapefruit melds with the more savoury aromas of almond nougat, vanilla beans and marzipan – an opulent concoction that is infused with a charry smokiness. The savouriness carries through onto a wonderfully dry, but rich and powerful palate that has great texture and concentration – evidence of this wine’s low-intervention genesis.
Greywacke 2014 Pinot Noir – A sweet-scented compote of poached Black Doris plums, raspberries and black cherries with a spoonful of homemade strawberry conserve stirred in for good measure. A highly fragrant style of Marlborough pinot with cinnamon and clove spiciness – a dense structure, generous palate weight and a long, lively finish.

]]>Huia Sauvignon Blanc shows a good aromatic intensity with bright floral note of elderflower and lime blossom. The wine is layered with flavours ranging from guava, melon, gooseberry and lime zest.
Because a small percentage of the wine was aged in a little neutral oak, it has the complexity and softness to be a delicious match with food.
Seafood like fresh oysters, prawns, scallops, steamed mussels and marinated fish are a given but this little juicy number is a hit with seasonal asparagus and a wide variety of cheeses.
