The wine region of Gladstone
Sub-region of central Wairarapa, New Zealand (Ruamahanga riverbanks, ancient well-drained fluvial terraces, stony silty loams with a clay component, cooler sunny climate). Pinot Noir is the signature red: concentrated with intense red and black fruits, structure and silky texture on clay-loam soils. Sauvignon Blanc is a bright white, Pinot Gris textured, Riesling age-worthy and Chardonnay elegant. Low yields from artisan growers producing concentrated grapes.
The wine region of North Island
New Zealand's North Island, warmer and more varied than the South Island. Bordeaux varieties and Pinot Noir as signatures. Merlot in Hawke's Bay as a supple red with notes of plum, ripe cherry, fresh herbs and a spicy touch, round tannins — blended with Cabernet and peppery Syrah. Fine Pinot Noir in Wairarapa/Martinborough (cherry, undergrowth).
