HOW IT GOES DOWN

Dry and finishing long with a hint of toasty oak this well balanced and attractive wine combines the best of ripe Marlborough fruit with complexity and weight from a barrel. Golden and brilliant in the glass, this wine is full bodied and softly textural with good weight from ripe fruit balanced by judicious use of toasty oak.

Expert Opinion

"It’s elegantly complex on the nose showing apricot, lemon peel, oatmeal, nougat and roasted cashew characters, leading to a gorgeously rounded palate offering refined mouthfeel and bright acidity, finishing persistent and focused. Beautifully layered with delectable flavours and textures. At its best: now to 2028."

Sam Kim - Wine Orbit

"Misty Cove has rapidly established themselves as a force in the Marlborough winemaking scene, winning the hearts of wine lovers with their charismatic, tasty wines. This is brimming with ripe stone fruit, vanilla, cedar and brioche notes with excellent depth and persistency, capable of matching roast chicken, seafood risotto and hot-smoked salmon with crème fraiche. Packed with ripe stone fruit flavours, a food-friendly winner."

"Gorgeously fruited and wonderfully complex, the bouquet shows apricot, rockmelon, vanillin oak and oatmeal characters. The palate displays excellent weight and persistency, combined with succulent fruit flavours and seductive oak infusion, making it hugely appealing. At its best: now to 2025."

Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

"Rich, mouth-filling chardonnay with white peach, nectarine, and savoury, smoky, nutty flavours. An intense, age-worthy wine with a deliciously creamy texture and lingering finish."
