3 x Sideways Reserve Wairarapa Pinot Noir 2020

AWARDED 94/100 POINTS & 5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Nov 2021

"It’s gorgeously ripe and perfumed on the nose showing Black Doris plum, violet, cedar, olive and subtle game characters, leading to a concentrated palate that’s plush and generous. Wonderfully styled with refinement as well as opulence, finishing impressively long and satisfying. At its best: now to 2028." Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Nov 2021

The 2020 Pinot Noir shows elegance and finesse reflecting the warm growing season in the region. Strong aromatic expressions of red berries, spice and herb give way to a fresh palate with generous length and graceful oak.

The vineyard blocks selected for this wine receive additional attention during the growing season with a lot of leaf plucking and shoot positioning done by hand to expose the fruit and ensure optimum ripeness. The vineyard is planted in a combination of rootstock and Pinot Noir clones. This Pinot Noir was made from clones 667, 5, 777, and Abel. Each of which add their own character and complexity to the final blend.

In the winery, the different batches of fruit were processed separately so that the individual characters could be retained. Further complexity was then added by incorporating different techniques such as plunging and pumping over to ensure maximum flavor extraction. As well as this, different yeast combinations along with wild yeasts were used to add even more depth of flavour. The grapes were left to cold soak for 3 days prior to fermentation. They were then left on skins for 21 days before being pressed off into barrel. There they spent 12 months in oak (23% new) before the final blend was put together.

3 x Sideways Wairarapa Pinot Noir 2020

AWARDED 93/100 POINTS & 5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Nov 2021

"Beautifully ripe and inviting with dark cherry, floral, clove and roasted hazelnut aromas, it’s juicy and rounded in the mouth offering terrific fruit power and persistency. Silky and lingering with plenty of delectable flavours. At its best: now to 2026." Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Nov 2021

This Pinot Noir combines subtle aromas of raspberry, blackberry and herb with a little earthiness. Chocolate, sweet cherry and spice show on the palate. Excellent with roast duck, lamb chops with barbequed asparagus.

The vineyard is planted in a range of Pinot Noir clones that give character and complexity to our wines. Naturally Low yields and meticulous viticulture ensure clean ripe fruit is selected for this wine. The 2020 growing season was an excellent one, producing fruit with phenolic ripeness, great concentration, bold colours and excellent tannin structure.

The fruit was harvested by clonal selection and fermented in small open top fermenters. A combination of plunge and pump over techniques ensured optimum flavour extraction. After ferment the wines were aged in French barrels for 10 months, before blending and bottling.

A Polished Leather Tote That Looks Right at Home in the Office 👜
Color: Coffee, Color: Coffee
This leather tote has a really beautiful, structured look that feels both classic and professional. The leather has that rich, slightly vintage finish that gives it character, and the shape holds nicely whether it’s carried by the top handle or worn with the shoulder strap. I actually got this for my daughter-in-law, who is a trial attorney and needs something that looks polished and put-together in court, and this bag really delivers that look. It’s roomy enough to carry her essentials comfortably, and the zip-top closure keeps everything secure. The interior is thoughtfully laid out with pockets that make it easy to stay organized without digging around, and the bag itself feels sturdy without being overly heavy. It works just as well for everyday use, but definitely has that elevated, professional style that makes it stand out a bit more than a typical tote. ⭐ Bottom Line: A structured, professional-looking leather bag that combines style, organization, and everyday functionality—great for work, commuting, or anyone who wants a polished look.

Real leather, soft and lightweight
Color: Brown, Color: Brown
This medium sized leather tote bag is well made, with tight stitching; heavy duty, gunmetal colored hardware; and a thick, dark gray fabric lining on the inside. There are 2 short, rounded handles that do not fold down, and a narrow, flat, detachable crossbody strap that can be adjusted in length. The style is simple and classic, with a hand-dyed brown finish that will go well with most outfits. It's versatile, being suitable for work or everyday use. It can carry a small laptop or tablet, along with other essential items. There are no outside pockets, but inside there are several. The central compartment is spacious, with 2 slip pockets on one side. There are also 2 zippered pockets, with a large open pocket separating them. The top of the bag has a full, metal zipper that seems good quality. This bag is very attractive as well as functional, and though the leather feels lightweight the bag seems durable. Its listed price is a little high for my budget, but a coupon offer currently makes it a good value. I was very surprised that there is no logo or branding of any kind visible on the outside of this bag, and only one name label stitched to a pocket on the inside. Many bags I see have prominent names, symbols, or initials on the outside, and sometimes all over the inside lining as well. The simplicity of this bag is a refreshing change as it lets the quality speak for itself. I like it!

Great bag
Color: Brown, Color: Brown
This is a wonderful leather bag. It can be carried by handles or worn crossbody. It fits my 13" MacBook Pro perfectly though it doesn't have any particular padding to protect a laptop. I have a couple of nitpicks though for a bag that costs $98. 1/It's a shame that the handles can't lay down or disappear in some way when not in use. They just look a little goofy when you wear the bag across your body. And 2/the stitching is a little weird. The exterior shows the stitching for the inside pocket and I don't know that it's necessary. All in all it's a good bag but if I could return it I would consider doing so because of the way the handles stick up when worn crossbody. I do think, ultimately that's a dealbreaker for me.

This Bag Is Unbelievable - Serious Business
Color: Brown, Color: Brown
I’m a self-admitted bag enthusiast, and this one genuinely surprised me. I wasn’t familiar with the brand, but the quality is immediately apparent. The leather is soft yet substantial, giving it a premium feel without seeming fragile or flimsy. The stitching is impeccable, and the front and back are cleanly designed with no unnecessary frills—just a timeless, well-constructed silhouette. It’s the kind of bag that people notice, whether you’re carrying it or someone sees it from across the room. The strap was neatly packaged inside, and everything arrived in perfect condition. I looked it over carefully and couldn’t find a single flaw. In my opinion, this is a near-perfect everyday bag and an impressive value for the quality. *** Photos are front of bag (same as back), side of bag & bottom of bag. As you can see the stitching, as well as everything else, is quite impressive. Love this bag!
