Tasting Notes

This wine opens with earthy, smoky aromas layered with cherry, red fruit, and dried herbs. On the palate, it’s medium-bodied and soft, showing wild berry flavours framed by grainy tannins. A quietly complex wine that reflects the character of its components without overstatement.

  • Vineyard & Winemaking

    Grown in small blocks, each variety is managed individually to maximise potential, and hand-picked according to ripeness. Strongly influenced by both the clay soil and the cooling sea-breeze.

    Each variety is sorted by hand before being vinified separately in small open fermenters. Aged in French oak barriques for 12 months.

  • Vintage Notes

    A challenging season, strong La Niňa conditions continued right through 2022 and the first half of 2023 bringing above average rainfall and humidity to the north and east of the North Island. November, January, and early February were especially wet cumulating with Cyclone Gabrielle impacting Northland on the 12th and 13th of February. After Gabrielle the second half of February and all of March were relatively dry resulting in some good fruit but significantly reduced yields.

Back To Our Wines

Warmed by Northland’s long summers, dried by the sea breeze and nurtured in ancient clay and sandstone soils, The Landing produces beautifully crafted wines.
