A spotlight on Rays Road
Dear Friends,
As we find ourselves with a little more time on our hands we thought we'd take the opportunity to tell the background story to our Rays Road vineyard from Hawkes Bay. We've been enjoying all the Rays Road wines since release, especially the Pinot Noir as the cooler weather is upon us.
The limestone soils of this hillside vineyard in Rays Road, Raukawa gives all the wines a distinctive flinty edge that we are very excited about. No doubt this is what attracted Pascal Jolivet from Sancerre when he and Trinity Hill started the vineyard as a joint venture 12 years ago. We were very happy to purchase this vineyard in 2017.
The Kumeu Village 2019's certainly found favour with our customers during the lock-down period and we would like to thank you for purchasing these lovely everyday wines from an excellent vintage.
As customers are catching on to the the terrific value of Kumeu Village wines from a great vintage we have decided to offer The Village Six for $99 plus any delivery charges .
The Village Six is comprised of...
2 bottles 2019 Kumeu Village Chardonnay,
2 bottles 2019 Kumeu Village Pinot Gris
2 bottles 2019 Kumeu Village Pinot Noir
The Village Six can be purchased online here for contact-less delivery.
2019 Kumeu Village Chardonnay
Fermented in a combination of tanks and older French oak barrels the 2019 Village Chardonnay shows the typical fresh flinty nature of this wine but with a little extra ripe lusciousness in 2019. We always say that this wine is one you should have constantly in the fridge.
2019 Kumeu Village Pinot Gris
A lighter and drier version of the Kumeu River Estate Pinot Gris. This wine is refreshing and delicious . The aromas of lemon and quince are very appealing and that palate is lively and complex with a refreshing lick of tannin on the end. This is a very suitable aperitif but will also go well with a wide variety of Seafood and Charcuterie
2019 Kumeu Village Pinot Noir
Made from 25% Kumeu and 75% Hawkes Bay grown fruit. The Hawkes Bay fruit from the limestone vineyard we acquired from the original joint venture between Pascal Jolivet of Sancerre and Trinity Hill. The limestone slope produces very fragrant , delicious Pinot Noir. The colour is quite light but the wine packs a lot of flavour. Beautiful red fruits come across in this very pretty wine that finishes beautifully dry. Can be served cool to maximise the lovely fragrance of this wine.
