The wine region of Awatere Valley
New Zealand sub-region of Marlborough (steep hills, gravelly terraces, aeolian loams, powerful winds, marked diurnal range).

Pinot Noir in cool-climate red: fragrant berries, thick skins.
The wine region of South Island
New Zealand's southern island, cradle of the country's great wines. Sauvignon Blanc signature in Marlborough (~80% of national vineyard): explosive and tropical with grapefruit, passion fruit, boxwood, cut grass and mineral touch — global benchmark. Pinot Noir star in Central Otago (among the most southerly) and Waipara: airy with cherry, raspberry, undergrowth, thyme. Taut Riesling, precise Chardonnay, floral Pinot Gris.
