We have our long-time wine consultant Geoff Kelly to thank for popularising this wine in his monthly Worth Cellaring column. Geoff has over 40 years’ experience in judging quality wines and ever since his glowing review the wine has been springing off the shelves like its six-legged namesake. Geoff compares it to a very high quality Cote de Beaune, which means fragrant red fruits, elegant structure with fine tannins and length to burn. He recommends cellaring for 3-8 years. We defy you to wait that long…  

Drink with: Roasted duck and game. Try it with your Christmas ham too - Pig and Pinot is pretty perfect.

The fragrant red-fruits bouquet of this Alexandra pinot is straight out of the Cote de Beaune, and the whole wine is a delight to drink even now. It will cellar 3 – 8 years, depending on the stage of maturity preferred. GK Aug 11

Easter weekend I flew up to Auckland and had a great time visiting family. I made sure I went to Maison Vauron, a must if you enjoy French wines and also Galbraiths to try a few craft beers.

Roast Chicken for dinner evidently. Which Kumeu River Chardy shall I choose?
