Unit price perTerrantes is one of the noble Madeira grapes offering a medium dry style. The base wine is fortified to 17-20% and stored in ?estufas? which are heated to 45 degrees celsius for no less than 3 months.
A brilliant, deep gold colour in the glass that then offers aroma of dried fruits, raisins, hazelnuts and walnuts. The palate is medium dry with flavours of almonds, dried fruits and spices with impeccable acid balance.
Trademark wines are only made in a good vintage, with fairly small print runs. They're drinkers and keepers. Made from 100% Hawke's Bay gold.
Ripe fruit from three of our Trademark Syrah vineyards planted on limestone hillsides and an old riverbed. It shows admirable ripeness and depth of flavour, retaining vibrancy and great complexity on the nose and palate with typical violet, spice, black cherry and subtle white pepper notes. Supple chalky tannins provide a structure that promise time in bottle will be rewarded.
An excellent example of the Côte de Nuits Villages appellation.

Unit price perThe seemingly maverick wines of Domaine Marcel Deiss pay homage to historical field blends made in Alsace, France; a region steeped in controversial history between France and Germany, countries which have both fought and both won (and lost) ownership of this territory. This is why the wines in Alsace are made from grapes more commonly associated with Germany, such as this interesting white - a dry Muscat, Riesling, Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir.
This wine is made from vines planted in 1997 at a density of 2,000 per hectare on steep terraced, south facing slopes of shallow, granite soil.
The grapes in this wine were hand picked, fermented with natural yeasts and aged for 12 months in large, ancient foudres.
Like all wines of Domaine Marcel Deiss, this one has cult status with wine collectors and drinkers alike so we are thrilled to have a wide range of them back in store, only they are in limited supply, so if you're a fan or a curious newcomer, get in quick.
Domaine Marcel Deiss is located in Bergheim, a small village nestling in the heart of the wine region of Alsace, equal distance from the northern and southern boundaries of the region. The current winemaker is Jean-Michel Deiss, who was born into a long-established family of wine growers, living at Bergheim since 1744.
Today he manages the domaine, which consists of 26 hectares (52 acres) of hillside vineyards spread over nine communes and approximately 20 kilometres.

Unit price perHarmonie du Soir is French for evening harmony and is the evocative name for this outstanding red made from grapes grown on the small Puriri Hills Vineyard in the Clevedon Hills, south of Auckland.
The wine's name is taken from Baudelaire?s reflection on sensory magic, the condition of all natural elements being in harmony for a brief moment, which is certainly appropriate for such a high quality wine, modelled on the best from Bordeaux.
Puriri Hills founder Judy Fowler takes her inspiration from Bordeaux for all her wines, which are solely made from red grapes and all blends with Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec and Merlot playing starring and supporting roles.
She suggests this dark, spicy red can be cellared for at least 15 years in cool dark cellar conditions.

The Style of the Wine
With its well-defined character, this wine perfectly illustrates the identity of the Nuits Saint Georges vineyard. Complex aromas of blackcurrant mingled with spicy blackberry are revealed on the nose with, depending on the vintage, darker notes of liquorice, leather and blood orange. The well-built mouth affirms itself with density and strength around a tight structure with rich, well-wrapped tannins. It becomes increasingly seductive over time, which comes from the elegance, intensity and purity of the fruit.

- The Clos des Forêts Saint Georges covers the entire geological range of the slopes of Nuits Saint Georges: Ladoix limestone at the bottom, Premeaux limestone in the middle, and white oolite limestone in the upper part, with a marked presence of ochre silt in some places. This Clos is planted entirely to Pinot Noir.
- Traditional vinification: A manual harvest, minimal vatting, pumping over and punching down without excess to reveal the full aromatic range drawn from this great terroir. Ageing lasts on average 15 months in oak barrels, with a maximum of 40% of new barrels, and 3 months in vats before bottling.
- A wine for ageing: the generous terroir of the Clos des Forêts Saint Georges forms the soul of the wine. It builds a solid red around well-present tannins which define a wine for ageing. A few years in the cellar will allow the wine to express itself more fully and make it more graceful, silkier and more complete.
The Terroir
In Burgundy the monopoly (single estate vineyard) defines a unit of land, a terroir which has been perfectly defined for centuries and which is owned by a single proprietor. The Clos des Forêts Saint Georges covers a surface of 7.2 hectares, all in one piece. It is a unique terroir in a privileged location which right from its origin has made one of the greatest Nuits Saint Georges wines.
Tasting Note
The nose brings out deep, intense floral and fruity notes, mixed with hints of spice. Described as a more muscular wine, the palate is straightforward yet complex, elegant and full-bodied. The finish is long and intense, suggesting that it will keep well. This is a very fine wine with velvety tannins.
