"A captivating bouquet of fresh white fleshed fruit, whispers of white and exotic flowers. Red and yellow apple, white clay and mineral core, soft white baking spices and lots of energy. On the palate - plush, fresh and delicious, a completely captivating wine on the palate with fine gentle creamy texture, mineral wild flowers, lively acid line and fruit flavours that mirror the nose. A great example, perfectly balanced, lengthy and just dry." - Cameron Douglas MW

"Rich, weighty wine with appealing varietal flavours of apple, peach, floral and subtle spice flavours supported by fine, tangy acidity. Deliciously approachable now but no rush 1/4/2020." - Bob Campbell MW 

"Aromas of fresh lime zest and fragrant gardenias, this wine is taut and vibrant in a way that will show its’ maturity over a very long period of time. Flavours of fine wool and bush honey are enhanced by cumquat and ripe bouche pear aromas with a tingling aftertaste.

Grown, not made. The Millton Vineyard specialises in growing fine wine from estate grown grapes sourced from their own single vineyards. In 1986 they were the first New Zealand winegrowers to attain the Bio-Gro organic certification and after 28 years of biodynamic practice they were again one of the first to qualify for the Demeter certification NZ, in 2009." - Millton
