Anchorage Estate Nelson Gewurztraminer 2014
Classically perfumed with ginger, white pepper, turkish delight and juicy white peach - this had me at the first whiff. Loaded with ripe stonefruit, fresh mandarin and musky spices in the mouth, it reveals a dry, pure, lip-puckering texture. Fresh and fabulous, it's a must-sip with your next Thai takeaway.

Bladen Marlborough Pinot Rosé
So pretty and sparkly bright, this rosé is like a liquid pink diamond in the glass. It has exotic, alluring aromas of fresh-picked raspberries, cherry and creaming soda characters that lead to tangy cranberry, pomegranate and pink peppercorn notes on the palate. It's deliciously dry and great when served chilled with a watermelon, mint, feta and black olive salad.
Price $24.99
Millton Les Arbres Clos de Ste Anne Gisborne Viognier 2013
This is one of those wines you must try before you die.
If you're looking for the epitome of what can be achieved with viognier in this country, then this is it. Deeply golden, this organic, bio-dynamic viognier socks you with the nostalgic scent of polishing wax, grilled apricots, jasmine, lambswool and musk. On the palate it is silky, luxuriously textured, studded with exotic spices and dried citrus peel before finishing with delicious warmth and complexity. Gloriously sexy.
