Description

  • Off-dry style
  • Apricot & apple
  • Wild strawberries
  • Juicy acidity

A name synonymous with leadership in wine, Sir George Fistonich has a history of success but has always operated with an eye on the future. In 2021 Sir George, not content with retiring,  founded Fistonich Family Vineyards to continue his love of viticulture, winemaking and developing future talent.

These wines are a selection of the first wines released under Fistonich Family Vineyards.

"Delightfully ripe and elegantly fragrant with watermelon, apricot, Gala apple and subtle spice aromas, it’s succulent and fleshy in the mouth delivering silky texture and juicy acidity. Refreshing and immediately appealing. At its best: now to 2024" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, May 2023

A bouquet of wild strawberries and turkish delight invites you to a palate rich with flavours reminiscent of aromatic summer evening blossoms. With a robust fruit weight and flavours lengthening to a balanced off dry finish this wine is ideal for summer long lunches or simply enjoyed on its own.

The New Zealand ‘Forest Flower Collection’ wines are inspired by the beauty of New Zealand native flowers.

2022 was a complicated vintage which called for every bit of expertise between the winemaker, viticulturist and the harvesting crew. This meant that the fruit was harvested in small exact windows of maturity ensuring perfect fruit for the Rosé style.

Separate varietal fermentation, Specific Rosé yeast inoculation. Stopped ferment using cooling to ensure a small amount of grape sugars were left for the style.
