WARD VALLEY ‘MT VICTORIA BLOCK’
PINOT NOIR 2022
Gorgeously styled and seductively complex, showing ripe cherry, thyme, smoked game, almond and earthy mushroom characters, leading to a beautifully rounded palate offering excellent weight and soothing mouthfeel. Splendidly framed by silky texture and polished tannins, finishing long and satisfying.
WARD VALLEY ‘COASTAL BLOCK’
CHARDONNAY 2023
Fresh citrus and mineral flavour, a typical cool climate chardonnay that has light-bodied freshness with a delicate oak roundness. Sourced from our vineyard in the sub region of Ward Valley, southern Marlborough, blessed with deep clay loam soils and traces of limestone. After an excellent growing season the parcel of grapes for this wine were selected from the Ward Valley Estate Coastal Block. The grapes were taken to Spring Creek and transferred to small open top fermenters for vinification. After ferment was finished the wine was pressed to a mixture of new and seasoned French oak barriques to mature.
WARD VALLEY ‘STONY BEACH’
SAUVIGNON BLANC 2023
Succulent fruit balanced by lovely, subtle and flinty minerality. This is a seductively powerful and moreish wine yet understated by its elegance. The nose is all about floral and nettle notes. In Essential Awatere fashion the finish is lively, crisp and lingering. A delicious wine that brings together “new world” fruit and “old world” elegance and minerality.
