A selection of delightful drops to add to your summer sampling schedule.
FIDDLER’S GREEN VINEYARD & BISTRO PINOT NOIR RESERVE 2018
This pinot noir was aged for 17 months in the barrel, with the last three months spent resting in a specially imported American oak barrel from Jack Daniel’s Distillery. The wine is elegant yet supple, with a silky texture, good acid balance and smooth tannins on the finish.
BLACK ESTATE TREBLE ROSÉ 2019
This co-fermentation of Riesling (53%), Pinot Noir (22%) and Chardonnay (12%), with a bit of Chenin Blanc and Cabernet Franc in the mix as well, has resulted in a summer stunner from Black Estate.
PEGASUS BAY RESERVE BEL CANTO DRY RIESLING 2017
The orange zest aroma so characteristic of North Canterbury rieslings is here in abundance, and a small amount of spritzig from retained natural carbon dioxide adds extra liveliness.
