Why We Love This Wine

Deep in the Waihopai Valley in New Zealand, Spy Valley Vineyards was established in the 1990s in a land previously considered too dry & infertile for wine. A pioneer in the region & now considered one of New Zealand's most successful family run wineries, the Johnsons are simply farmers at heart nurturing soil & vine in a sustainable fashion to cultivate the complexities in their wines that now count 8 varietals exported to 35 countries worldwide. A creamy & full bodied palate of peach, citrus, & pear tart with aromas of sweet honeysuckle, quince, & almond pastry. Fresh & vibrant with a concentration of fruit on the finish.

Winemaker / Tasting Notes
