Cameron Douglas, MS, New Zealand's first and only Master Sommelier, reviewed this wine and awarded Excellent (94 Points)! These wines will be included in his World of Wine magazine (winter 2022 edition).

Cameron Douglas review: "Made with the Kisi variety and fermented in Qvevri or amphorae - this wine showcases aromas and flavours of  apples and apricots, wild flower and honeysuckle, there’s a core of minerality and personality with complexity, charm and mystery. Dry on the palate with flavours that mirror the apple and mineral the most then wild flowers and apricot stone. A natural leesy quality and definitive chalky texture along with plenty of acidity make for a delicious and fiierent beverage best served with food. great drinking from today and through 2030+."

 
The wine-making process involves pressing the grapes and then pouring the juice, grape skins, stalks and pips into the Qvevri, which is sealed and buried in the ground so that the wine can ferment for five to six months before being drunk.

Cameron Douglas review: "Aromas and flavours of fresh citrus and pear, lemon and bosc, white peach then exotic white spices. Some apple and pith then a floral note layer in complexity. Very youthful with a firm texture and plenty of acidity - this highlights some mineral qualities. Refreshing, salty, salivating and well made. Best drinking from 2022 through 2028+.
