Recommended Food: Can be enjoyed as an aperitif, as well as with pasta and red meat dishes.

The fruit was crushed at our Auckland winery and fermented at relatively high temperatures with frequent pump-overs for tannin and colour extraction. The wine was then pressed and blended then allowed to mature prior to bottling."

Wine Reviewer Michael Cooper's Buyers Guide to New Zealand Wine 2009
Wine Review "Over several decades, this smooth, low-priced red has built up a strong following. The 2006 vintage is a blend of Pinotage (87 per cent) and Cabernet Sauvignon (13 per cent). Ruby-hued, it is mouthfilling, with plenty of berryish, plummy, spicy, slightly earthy flavours. Like a minor Cotes-du-Rhone, it's a good all-purpose quaffer, offering great value."
