Bird In Hand Two In The Bush Chardonnay 2021
This Chardonnay from Australia presents it self as a pale straw yellow in the glass. It gives us classic regional characteristics of grapefruit and white peach with subtle cashew notes from its time spent in the barrel on yeast lees. It gives intense flavour and delivers a delicate texture to the mid-palate with some chalkiness and mineral acidity. This chardonnay spends 9 months in Oak barrels. The name given is after one of the original mine shafts in the Bird in Hand goldmine, Two in the Bush wines are great value wines designed for every day and anytime drinking. Awarded 90 points at the Halliday Australian Wine Competition.
Heaphy Sauvignon Blanc Nelson 2024
Heaphy Sauvignon Blanc is a vibrant, textural expression of Nelson's unique coastal terroir. Bright and racy with saline freshness and layered fruit, it sets itself apart from New Zealand's other regional Sauvignons. Made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc grown in Tasman, Upper Moutere, and the Waimea Plains, this wine showcases the distinctive character of the Nelson Tasman region. Why You'll Love It This is Nelson Sauvignon Blanc from Heaphy Vineyard, a small winery in the north-west corner of New Zealand's South Island. The Nelson Tasman region, with its long sunshine hours, cool maritime breezes, and varied soils, creates ideal conditions for expressive, terroir-driven wines that are distinctly different from Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. The grapes are cold pressed to tank for fermentation, then settled, racked, and left to rest on fine lees for 8 months before gentle filtration and bottling. This extended lees contact creates a wine with rich mouthfeel, fine leesy texture, and remarkable complexity. This is New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc with coastal character, textural depth, and saline freshness. Region & Winemaking Produced by Heaphy Vineyard in Nelson Tasman, South Island, New Zealand.
