Discover the grape variety: Roi des noirs

Light, simple fruity reds with a pale ruby robe, smooth tannins and an airy palate with moderate acidity, showing understated red fruit aromas. Discreet rustic profile. Preserved in a few ampelographic collections for its heritage value, it belongs to the ancient varieties whose commercial spread has nearly vanished, studied for their genetic interest. Rare black variety, little documented, grown in confidential quantities.

The wine region of Gimblett Gravels

Unique trademark terroir of Hawke's Bay (~800 ha, 2001 association, ≥95% gravels): Bordeaux varieties and Syrah are the signature red kings (90% of the vineyard) — dominant Merlot (35%), Syrah (20%) and Cabernet Sauvignon, signature intense profile with ripe black fruit (cassis, blackberry), spices and a peppery touch, racy tannins and power. Loose, draining gravels storing daytime heat, the region's warmest terroir, comparable to Bordeaux.


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: Ladle

Said of a wine that is not clear due to the presence of colloidal suspensions that prevent the passage of light.
