We are equally a proud of our 2024 Chardonnay, which Cameron Douglas has appointed 94 points in his most recent review. A true testament to the strength of Chardonnay from the Waitaki Valley.

"On the palate a full-bodied dry wine with a core of green melon and stone fruit flavours, vanilla and baked nut complexities. Medium+ acid line, a silky-cream texture and fine tannins from oak and fruit leading to a lengthy finish."

Available for purchase on our online store.

Our IWC award-winning 2021 Caroline’s Pinot Noir continues to show beautifully. Elegant and expressive, with a fleshy palate, fine direction, and depth without heaviness, a wine that continues to evolve gracefully with time.

As the season moves into harvest, the Waitaki Valley has been fortunate to have a warm and consistent growing season. These conditions have allowed the fruit to develop gradually while maintaining the natural balance and acidity that define our site. In the vineyard, we’ve been trialling softer, biological approaches to vine health and disease management, in an effort to move towards more regenerative farming practices that support the long-term health of the vineyard.
