The resulting wines are an elegant expression of our Waikari farm.

Made using Zoncello Limoncello and sparkling wine, this is a vibrant limoncello spritz with notes of lemon sherbet and is reminiscent of ice cold sorbet in a glass. Fresh and bright with a gentle fizz. Perfect for sunny days and friends. This is a refreshing drop best served chilled over ice.
Process
The Limoncello has been handmade from locally sourced lemons, steeped in alcohol for two months to extract all the wonderful citrus aromas.
Sugar was then added and allowed to rest for another two months.
Sparkling wine was then added to the Limoncello and the sugar levels reduced.
Citric acid was then added to ensure the final product was fresh and zingy.

This pre-made bottled Bellini is made with sparkling wine and peach nectar. It has a wonderful bold flavour of peach, which is present on the nose and carries through on the palate, offering a soft creamy texture with the gentle fizz. The flavours are delightful on the taste buds and linger slightly. A delightful way to begin a meal.
Process
Grapes were machine pressed. The pressed juice was then chilled and allowed to clarify for 3 days. The clear juice was racked off lees and transferred to the fermentation tank. The lees were filtered and combined with the rest of the juice. The juice was warmed to 15 degrees celsius and yeast added. The ferment was complete after 17 days and kept at 17-18 degrees and allowed to warm to 20 degrees towards the end to ensure completeness. The base wine was then cold stabilised and filtered, now ready to be converted into a Bellini.

Unit price perAnother banger in our ever growing Hungarian section. This one is a deep ruby colour in the glass and offers a nose of red and black fruits complexed by chocolate and mineral notes, leading to a palate of blackberry, leather and spice flavours. It was matured in large Hungarian oak casks for more than two years. There are some lovely gorgeous Bordeaux notes in this wine - Petit Verdot being one of the seasoning grapes often found at low percentages in a lot of Bordeaux. It isn't showy though, more of a thought provoking wine.
An ideal match with dishes made of venison.
