91 Points - James Melendez. An exceptional organic sparkling wine that puts many champagnes in its shadow. This excellent Organic Crémant de Loire has been aged for a minimum of 12 months to obtain maximum aromatics and complexity. The first nose is delicate and very fresh, then it is more expressive through a small biscuit tip after aeration. We find this in the mouth within a compact texture, built by the time on slats, illustrated by small and delicate bubbles and supported by aromas of fresh

90 Points - Decanter - This delicious NZ Sauvignon Blanc is made from grapes sourced from the three premium Wairau Valley sub-regions, each selected for the distinct characteristic each location brings to the wine.
