The wine region of Gisborne

Wine region of the eastern North Island of New Zealand, nicknamed the country's 'Chardonnay capital'. Chardonnay signature in white: ample and tropical with signature notes of peach, passion fruit, pineapple, soft vanilla, honey and a mineral touch, round and long palate — generous and sunny. Also floral Pinot Gris, aromatic Gewürztraminer (lychee, rose), opulent Viognier, taut Chenin, round Merlot. Sunny climate tempered by the Pacific.


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).

The word of the wine: Rimage

"Vintage", in Catalan. A natural sweet wine that is bottled early to preserve its fruitiness, as opposed to those aged in an oxidizing environment (see this word). Syn.: vintage (for maury, port).
