Tasted this with a few people last night, from novice to seasoned taster, and they all just loved it. Importer: Mondo Imports
Rich, almost liquorice scented, sweetness of cherry fruit, mint, suede, and a touch of balsamic. Medium-bodied, but rich and plump,  sweet tannin, succulence and flavour, bright and so yum. A little ‘mineral’ feel too. Length is excellent. Flat out delicious. This is cracking value, and a wonderful drink.

 Australian Gourmet Traveller Wine, 01 March 2018 -    Nick Stock -  Supermodel Chardonnay 2015 is a stunner and a poster child for the age of refinement of great NZ wine.
Bob Campbell MW     96 Points -  Concentrated chardonnay with grapefruit, struck flint, mineral, hazelnut, brioche and spicy oak flavours. Youthful wine that’s approachable now and offers cellaring potential. A very classy wine indeed, with subtle complexity and underlying power.
Gary Walsh     95 Points The Wine Front, 27 January 2017 - What a wonderful Chardonnay. White peach and grapefruit, oatmeal and struck match, tight tracks of gleaming acidity, and a bullet of juicy but restrained flavour racing down them. A little flintiness. Some cashew creaminess. A tight and mouth-watering limey finish that makes you eye the level of the glass too often, and fret over it. You’d be mad not to.

Salmon pink, savoury and super sexy, the Nebbiolo grape makes lip-smacking Rosé for grown-ups.

"Liquorice, cream, subtle red cherry and dried herb. Smells great, but acidity is a bit sour and tangy, crunch of almost stalky tannin, and an aniseed flecked finish of fair length. A little lemony in the aftertaste, but a wine of interest and appeal. "

94 Points - Campbell Mattinson. "I don’t have any of the finer details but it’s a terrific wine. Texture, flavour, aroma and then some. The word gravitas springs to mind and yet it’s frisky and perfumed too. Indeed one sip and I was: bang, that’s a gold medal wine. Wish there were all easy like this. Fennel flying through florals. Character abounds. All over this at the price."

Dark chocolate and cherries are at the heart of this shiraz. A sprinkling of spices including pepper and clove adds complexity to the delicious forest berry fruit flavours. This is an elegant wine with great structure and fine tannins. It's great drinking now but can easily be cellared for another 8-10 years for further fruit development. Pork belly, braised lamb shanks or barbecued steak would make an excellent food match.

Beautiful cool climate shiraz (syrah) expression here. Murdoch Hill should firmly be on the radar by now. Pretty red fruited, briary, white pepper and charcuterie scents. Savoury from the get go. Medium weight, slinky textured, rose hip jam meets game meat flavours, pinch of pepper and smudged-slate-like tannins to close. Distinctive, elegant red of high charisma. Almost pinot-like in a way. Just lovely really.

30% whole bunches, matured in French oak (15% new). A very intense and powerful syrah with black fruits liberally doused with black pepper, spice and licorice. Despite this full-bodied assault on the senses, the wine retains shape, and has excellent balance. Top class cool climate style.
James Halliday Wine Companion 2018, August 2017

"Boysenberry, cracked pepper, a certain sweet grassy perfume, brown bread and vanilla. Medium bodied, deft and articulate, flavour and impact without heaviness, ripples of ultra-fine tannin, again that cracked wheat/brown bread thing,
and a very fine and long finish. You want Australian ‘Syrah’? You got it."

Single vineyard grenache from the Barossa. Whole bunches, basket pressing, 500l oak, bottled unfined.
Crackerjack grenache. Brimful of both power and personality but without being overdone. Florals, blueberries, redcurrant and bitumen. A flash of sweet raspberry but blink-and-you-miss-it.
Tannin flings wide through the wine. A beauty.  Rated : 95 Points Winefront.com.au

"Single vineyard. Made by Purple Hands. Blend of shiraz, montepulciano and aglianico. All French oak, most of it old. Bowled over by balance. It’s bold with flavour but everything here feels so well placed. It tastes of licorice, redcurrant, black cherries and peppery herbs, and while there’s a velvety/creaminess to the texture oak is not a major flavour contributor.
Tannin spreads and runs through a good deal of the wine, almost always a good sign.
Length, tick. Fabulous." 95 points Winefront.com.au

This exciting new wine – LDR stands for Light Dry Red – is a 51/49 blend of pinot noir from the high altitude Primavera vineyard with shiraz/syrah from the Sexton vineyard. The inspiration is Beaujolais, with a nod to the Hunter.

You could guzzle this. It’d be pretty sophisticated guzzling, admittedly, but the freshness and flow of it almost begs you to dive in for more. It’s all fruit, spice and nuts, a sweetness to the fruit and a smoky/clovey character to the spice, some reduction working in the wine’s favour too. Tip top, bang on, recommended, no hesitation.
