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. Enticing aromas of grapefruit, feijoa, bell pepper, & orange zest hints lead to a vibrant & mouthfilling palate of citrus, green herb, & tropical fruit flavors. Rich & textured with fine acidity & elegance, this will cellar well until 2024.
