Interesting Stephen. I live in NZ for 6 years but didn’t come accross this one. One can’t taste everything! I would be very interested to try it now 😉 They make some great wines in the Awatere, cool climate indeed, very suitable to making fragrant wines. I reviewed a few Sauv Blancs from there http://socialvignerons.com/tag/awatere-valley/
Cheers 🙂

Now in their 6th vintage, their Albarino wines are award winning with great minerality, good palate weight, showing really beautiful white stonefruit charactoristics.
