"Full of personality, this softly mouthfilling wine was fermented and matured for six months in old oak puncheons. Light lemon/green, it is perfumed, sturdy and rich, with deep lychee, pear and spice flavours, gentle sweetness, a slightly oily texture and good complexity and harmony" Michael Cooper, May 2021

"Upfront and fabulously perfumed, showing pineapple, lychee, Turkish Delight, dried flower and mixed spice aromas on the nose. It's sumptuous and plush on the palate, exhibiting creamy mouthfeel and mellow acidity, leading to a wonderfully long gratifying finish" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2021

"This has such intensity and ripeness. Pegasus Bay really knows how to deliver aromatic white in full regalia. The lychee and sweet rose perfume is heady and alluring, as is the sweetly fleshy and succulent palate" Nick Stock, Jamessuckling.com, Aug 2019

"Bright, pale yellow with a green hue and some depth, faintly lighter on edge. The nose is softly aromatic, fragrances of white blossoms, melded with lychees, citrus and white spice, underlying discreet barrel flint. Off-dry, medium-bodied, lychee, pear puree intermix rosewater and white rose petals, along with ginger, nutmeg linger on the finish. An oily, beeswax mouthfeel and pure fruit and floral expression contribute to the palate's weight and substance. Varietal characters are expressive and lingering, enriched by older barrel-fermentation details. This is an off-dry, textural Gewurztraminer shines with varietal characters and barrel-fermented complexities" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Review, Jan 2021

On release the wine is bright lemon in colour. The bouquet is a salvo of lychee, quince and sweet rose perfume, framed with hints of ginger, beeswax and fragrant spice. Due to the varietal intensity of Gewürz, some additional winemaking techniques have been employed to give the wine extra complexity. Skin contact and fermenting with solids provide increased structure and a subtle hint of struck match, while the oak aging and lees contact adds mouth feel. On the palate it is fleshy and succulent, with ripe phenolics and a whisp of bittersweet fruit kernel that complement the wine’s off-dry style, setting up for a long and satisfying finish.

The vineyard is located within the Waipara Valley of North Canterbury, on free draining, north facing terraces. It benefits from being in the lee of the Teviotdale Range, giving maximum protection from the Pacific’s easterly breezes and thus creating a unique mesoclimate. The vines are over 30 years old, with a large proportion planted on their own roots. The soil is free draining and of low fertility, resulting in naturally reduced vine vigour. This produces low yields of optimally ripened, high quality, flavourful grapes, which fully express the qualities of this unique terroir. The vineyard has warm days, but the nights are amongst the coolest in the Waipara Valley, drawing out the ripening period of the grapes, while still retaining good natural acidity.

Unsettled weather over flowering resulted in a lighter than average set, meaning that no further fruit thinning was necessary. A classic North Canterbury summer then enabled this smaller crop to mature beautifully. Accelerated ripening allowed harvest to take place slightly earlier than usual, and favourable autumn weather ensured the grapes were picked in perfect condition.

Harvest was deliberately delayed until the berries had developed a small amount of botrytis. After picking, the grapes were crushed and then left in contact with their skins. Following pressing, the cloudy juice was transferred into old oak puncheons, where it was left to ferment naturally. The wine was then matured for approximately 6 months in these barrels prior to bottling.

The Donaldson Family have been seriously involved in viticulture and winemaking for over 40 years. Founder Ivan Donaldson planted the first Canterbury vineyard in 1976 and went on to establish Pegasus Bay in 1986 with his wife Christine. It is a true family business, with all four of their sons involved.

Impressed!
Color: 02 - Untinted (1.7 oz)
Just got back from a week in Florida at Disney World and this sunscreen was fantastic. I have spent hours researching different products, reading reviews and trying different things and decided to try this on my mature, acne prone skin. I applied it in the morning before leaving the hotel and once more in the middle of the day and it protected my skin from the extreme heat and sun and did not cause any breakouts. It did not run and does not cause a white cast. I would highly recommend this product!

A Daily Essential – Lightweight & Fast-Absorbing
Color: 02 - Untinted (1.7 oz)
I've made this my go-to sunscreen and use it every single day. What sets it apart is the texture – it's smooth and applies beautifully without any sticky residue, which is a game-changer for daily wear under makeup or on its own. The absorption is impressively fast. I can apply it in the morning and not feel like I'm waiting around for it to dry down. It sinks in quickly and leaves my skin feeling clean and protected, not weighed down. For sensitive skin, this is exactly what I needed. This is a must-have in my routine. Highly recommend if you're looking for a lightweight, non-sticky sunscreen that actually works.

Good price
Size: 50 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Scent: Gentle & Mild
Most Amazon basics items are of decent quality and this is no exception. Nothing fancy just a decent hand soap with typical viscosity that will work in just about any dispenser including automatic dispensers. Most importantly it does a good job cleaning the hands without leaving your hands all sticky and gooey after washing. Yeah. That really is a thing. I've used hand soaps that after rinsing and drying your left with "gheco hands" like you can pick up a penny with your knuckle. No chemical or overpowering odor. One odd thing. The original order came in a box that looked like the Amazon loader threw it into the back of the van from about 50 feet away .... The bottles cap was destroyed and the soap had leaked into the box. Amazon quickly replaced the item with a new bottle no charge and didn't expect me to return the damaged bottle of course. Thing is the second box came in the same condition. Looked like the punter for the Ravens drop kicked it from the 30 into the back of the truck. Luckily the bottle was undamaged this time.

Convenient refill that lasts a long time
Size: 50 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Scent: Gentle & Mild
I bought this hand soap refill to save money and reduce plastic waste, and overall I’ve been very pleased with it. The soap has a pleasant scent that isn’t too strong, and it leaves my hands feeling clean without making them feel dry afterward. I also like how easy it is to refill existing dispensers instead of constantly buying new bottles. The large refill size lasts much longer than expected, which is convenient for a busy household. However, pouring the soap into smaller dispensers can be a little messy if you’re not careful. The packaging is somewhat bulky as well. Overall, it’s an economical and practical option that works very well for everyday hand washing.

This hand soap works very well, has a great scent, and costs less than half of inferior national brands. I have purchased 4 large refill bottles so far.
