Pol Roger Réserve Brut is a luminous expression of the house's 175-year legacy, crafted from an equal blend of Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay sourced from 30 esteemed crus and aged for four years in the cellar. In the glass, it shows a golden straw hue with fine, persistent bubbles, opening with enticing aromas of pear, mango, honeysuckle, and white jasmine that unfold into notes of vanilla and brioche. On the palate, a dynamic, fresh attack gives way to harmonious layers of fruit preserves, beeswax, acacia honey, candied citrus, and gentle spice. Celebrated for its remarkable balance of structure, elegance, and finesse, this Champagne is perfect for all occasions - serve as an apéritif or to elevate a full meal.

Rabbit Ranch Pinot Gris, being a mutation of Pinot Noir, revels in the Central Otago conditions that suit Pinot Noir so beautifully - a long slow ripening period is desirable, with cool nights and warm days as the Autumn harvest approaches. The Rabbit Ranch Pinot Gris has a mineral acidity backbone and an off dry finish that gives the wine a delicious structure and refreshing style.

Land that was once a high country sheep station is now a flourishing vineyard. Sheep and rabbits co-existed on the land for quite some time but the sheep couldn't keep up with the nocturnal activity of the rabbits, and in the end were driven off the land. Rabbits now run free on the vineyard and fuelled by high altitude Pinot Noir, some are reputed to be the size of ponies, but that's another story... The Rabbit Ranch Pinot Noir is made in a very soft, fruit forward, low tannin style - a wine to be savoured and supped, rather than an assault on the senses.
