Lime and lime zest with snow pea tendrils and grapefruit. A delightful texture and just the perfect amount of acidity to allow the fruit to make its powerful point without taking over the show. A delightful Savvy which should improve for a few years yet.
Learn More - Bird in Hand Sparkling Pinot Noir 2024Special Price $25.00 Regular Price $29.00Both grown on the estate and sourced from quality growers, the grapes are crushed and destemmed straight into the press to retain delicacy and aromatics and minimise colour transfer from the skins. The wine’s salmon pink colour is matched by a delicate strawberry aroma along with citrus blossom. The palate offers cherry and strawberry flavours and a creamy texture. The refined structure of this wine is highlighted by its subtle acidity and the elegance of very fine beading. Learn More

- Briar Ridge JKD Semillon 2024Special Price $40.00 Regular Price $45.00From a Lovedale vineyard, the JKD offers green apple and lemon, bath powder and lemongrass, sustained across a long and powerful palate.

Can also be cellared for about a decade if you prefer the pendulous lanolin notes that come with patience. Learn More
