Summer Sippers

Chief Winemaker, Paul Dawick takes us through four of our most popular summer wines and gives us some ideas of what they can be served with.

  • Leveret IQ Premium Brut Méthode Tradionnelle NV
    Sourced from prestigious Hawkes Bay fruit, this wine has a fine bead, and subtle nutty and citrus characters with an underlying brioche bun finish. Serve with fresh shellfish and antipasto platters, or simply enjoy on its own.

  • Leveret Estate Hawke’s Bay Chardonnay 2020
    Barrel-selected batches from premium grapes give us an elegant wine with stone fruit and butterscotch aromas. The palate is mouth-filling with melon and stone fruit, with subtle ginger spice adding complexity. Serve with seafood, creamy pasta and chicken.

  • Mills Reef Reserve Hawke’s Bay Chardonnay 2020
    This Chardonnay has pronounced yellow stone-fruit, rockmelon, nashi pear and ginger spice flavours, finished with toasty oak and butterscotch notes. Barrel fermentation and aging in quality oak give it a creamy complexity. Enjoy with pan-fried fish and a caper butter sauce.
