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. Invigorating citrus, lemon pith, & ginger spice over a layer of tropical fruits on the nose with a juicy & crisp palate laden with stonefruit giving generous length of flavor. Pairs perfectly with seafood & salads with tomato, lemon, & vinaigrette dressings.
Winemaker / Tasting Notes
A crisp & refreshing white wine with lime zest, passionfruit, & snow pea aromas & flavors complemented seamlessly by a lively acidity.
