New Zealand has become synonymous with Sauvignon Blanc, and this wine could be one of the reasons why. A crisp fresh Sauvignon Blanc with gooseberry and tropical fruit flavors. It's a great wine to be paired with food or to enjoy all on its own

New Zealand has become synonymous with Sauvignon Blanc, and this wine represents one of the reasons why. Flavors of gooseberry and tropical fruit with a zesty finish makes for a wine that will pair well with food or you can enjoy all on its own.

This bright lovely Pinot Gris was the first wine I have ever tried from this particular vineyard. Winemaker Simon Waghorn has created a very elegant wine with pear flavors and tropical fruit. Crisp acidity and a lovely wine to pair with roast pork.

At the recent 'New Zealand In A Glass' wine show, I had the opportunity to taste this wine. It is an extremely elegant expression of New Zealand Pinot Noir with good tannic structure. Beautiful raspberry flavors greet the nose and the palate and it has a great finish. New Zealand is putting out some fantastic Pinot Noir wines, and this is one of them.

Living on the East Cost of Canada in the Maritimes, I may have found the perfect seafood wine. This beautiful sparkling delight from Oyster Bay in New Zealand has gorgeous peach flavors with lime and citrus notes. A beautiful bubbly!
