A new addition for us but a not so new producer as it is made by Eradus.  Gold medal @ the NZIWS.

We were offered this alternative label from Eradus and jumped on it as it is such great value. For all the Ana's out there, it's a gimme but for all you who enjoy a glass of NZ's most popular variety. It also offers much appeal. 

"The fruit was destemmed and gently pressed. The juice was cold settled for 72 hours, after which the clear juice was racked, followed by a long cool fermentation in stainless steel to capture and enhance the fruit favours. Each of the individual parcels were fermented separately using a range of selected yeasts to enhance varietal characters. The wine was then blended, stabilised and filtered in preparation for bottling." Winery
