Elemental Distillers - Distilled by our own fair hands from only six botanicals including Gisborne grapefruit, wild Kawakawa fruit, foraged gorse flower and organic Motueka hops.

We work closely with New Zealand independent farmers, foragers and cooperatives to ensure we get only the finest quality botanicals from those who know & grow them best.

A Navy Strength bottling of Roots Marlborough Dry Gin with the addition of organic Akaroa giant kelp and Hawke's Bay hemp seed. A crisp and robust 'London Dry' style gin with aromatic reminiscence of the stormy Pacific seas. Named after the strong Norwest winds of the south Pacific and prevailing Marlborough weather systems.

Distilled entirely on estate from eight seasonally sourced botanicals and gunpowder proofed in recognition of Royal Navy gins of old.

From Marlboroughs' Ukrainian wine making duo Alina Tenetka & Masha, bringing their experience from Europe to make really elegant wines out of different sites in Marlborough, teasing the potential out of grapes in ways we don't often see in New Zealand wines. These wines are full of poise, elegance & are hot off the lips of many a wine critic. 

When Alina turned up with her wines at Regional's we were taken aback, why hadn't we heard of this any sooner? The wines all were a departure from the styles New Zealand had previously offered & placed themselves in some of the best examples of each variety they make that NZ has to offer!

Region: Southern Valley, Marlborough

The Story
In a land famed for Sauvignon Blanc, making Austria's Grüner Veltliner was a quiet rebellion. Drawn to its sharp wit and spicy character, we wanted to see how its alpine soul would develop a Marlborough accent. This wine is the result—a brave expression of a new identity.

Tastes Like
Crisp Green Apple, a bright spark of White Pepper, fresh Lime Zest, and a signature stony finish that speaks of our river-stone soils.

Pair With
A perfect match for asparagus and goat cheese tarts, fresh oysters with a squeeze of lemon, or a classic chicken schnitzel.

For the Geeks

Perfect heavy clay soil, similar to the Austrian motherland of Grüner. Excellent vintage with low crop, concentrating fruit and aroma. Fermented in stainless steel and seasoned French oak. Aged on fine lees for 7 months. Pure, fresh and vibrant - a true reflection of Marlborough
