Waimea means River Garden in Maori. Pure, delicately fragrant aromas of citrus, lemongrass and ripe apple. Light to medium bodied, the palate is lively with lime, lemon and orange citrus flavours and zest. Tropical notes contribute depth and succulence. Elegantly nuanced rather than loud and pungent in style, there is no lack of crunchy, mouthwatering intensity and drive from beginning to end.

“There’s no mistaking the core varietal scents of grapefruit and tropical fruits, crisp red apple and suggestions of sage and Thai basil. Crisp and dry, refreshing with high acidity and freshly picked herbs lift, some passionfruit and apple flavours along with a gentle flinty saline quality. Well made, new and ready. Best drinking from 2024 through 2029.”  93/100  Cameron Douglas MS, April 2024
