Description

"The grapes were hand-picked by our team and they were so ripe that the bees were swarming all over the bunches and picking bins. The bees clearly thought they were perfect grapes so hopefully you enjoy this as much as they did!

Ripe pear and gentle baking spice aromas mingle with rose petals. Lush and velvety in the mouth with flavours of pears, apricots and cinnamon."

 

--------THE PRODUCER--------

Unison Vineyards

Unison Vineyards is the pioneer of the Gimblett Gravels region of Hawkes Bay.  The vineyards were planted in 1993 –  before it was designated to be the winemaking hotspot of the country. Now it is owned and managed by Philip and Terry Horn who have continued the success of the stellar winery and stay true to the initial inspiration for the vineyard. It was the free-draining gravel soils that the founders of the vineyard were so attracted to in the Gimblett Gravels, as they had worked in Tuscany for many years prior and knew just how crucial they were to Chianti’s success.

--------THE REGION--------

Hawkes Bay

Sunny Hawkes Bay is along the eastern coast of New Zealand's north island. It is here where some of the most fruit-forward wines come from. They are known for their tropical Chardonnays and their juicy reds from the excellent Bordeaux wines to the peppery Syrahs.
