Well worth cellaring, the light yellow/green 2022 vintage (4.5 ) was barrel-aged. Very attractively scented, it is mouthfilling and youthful, with pure, sweet, pear-like flavours, a very subtle seasoning of oak, and excellent delicacy and richness. Best drinking 2024

Tasting Notes:Viognier is aromatic & full flavoured, ripe, rich & long lasting, an exciting new variety from the northern part of the Rhone Valley in France, very well suited to our site on Waiheke Island. Very popular

The South Pacific Ocean neighbouring our Te Awanga Estate vineyard is the inspiration for growing of our 'Sea' wines. Cooling sea breezes, shingle soils and delicate winemaking underlies the elegance and purity we strive for in this Viognier.

A haunting wine with bristling delicacy, buoyed by a noted mineral edge. Poached pear and warm croissant give a spiced and sappy appeal.
