92 POINTS: Bob Campbell MW
4.1/2 STARS: Cuisine Magazine
"Off-dry pinot gris with pear, citrus and mandarin flower flavours. A smooth textured wine, with fresh acidity helping to drive a lengthy finish. Appealing purity and length”
- 92 Points, Bob Campbell MWAkarua's quality reputation is continuing to gather momentum with recent awards including Red Wine of Show and Pinot Noir Trophy for Akarua Pinot Noir 2010 at the 5 Nations Wine Challenge 2012, Champion Pinot Noir Trophy for Akarua Pinot Noir 2009 at the Royal Easter Show 2011 and a
Gold Medal awarded to Rua 2010 at the Decanter World Wine Awards 2011."This is another Bannockburn-grown wine that bristles with crispness and energy. Peardrop, citrus and appley notes ring out with freshness and clarity. This appealing juicy dry style would be an excellent accompaniment for a creamy pasta primavera."
