One of the best Syrahs from Hawke's Bay, full of rich, dark blackberry flavours, red liquorice and a savoury finish; this wine is long and finely tuned without being heavy, dense or dry. And while it's impressive now, this is also a keeper from Smith & Sheth, a pair of wine loving business people whose aim is to make the best expression of grape and place. Hawke's Bay and Syrah are a match made in heaven.
This Cabernet Malbec is made up of Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec and Cabernet Franc. The varieties were hand-picked, de-stemmed and fermented separately in small open topped vats where they were gently hand plunged and pumped over to aid in extracting the maximum amount of flavour and colour from the berries. Following an extended maceration period the wine was transferred into French oak barrels where it spent 11 months.
This is a dark and brooding beast with fruits of the forest including Black Doris plum and spiced cherry. It is rich and powerful on the palate with a silky mouthfeel and well-pitched tannins. Attractively rounded with upfront fruit flavours this wine is very attractive now but will certainly reward with time in the cellar. Drink now through till 2030.
While low in alcohol, our Light Owl beer has been brewed to maximise personality. Chinook hops bring a distinctive pine aroma which is rounded out by the citrusy, floral flavours of the Taiheke hops. A bit of alchemy in the brew as we tinker with gravity, the result being a full-bodied, big character beer despite the low ABV.

ABOUT
From wild and beautiful Central Otago, comes New Zealand?s first artisanal wine-based
botanical Aperitivo. Created by Terra Sancta?s resident Witch, Seer and Alchemist, it is
made from the botanicals that surround our Bannockburn vineyards. ?Aperitivo? stems
from the Latin word Aperire meaning ?to open?. Designed to be consumed at the start
of either lunch or dinner as an Aperitivo, it will open you digestively and socially all
whilst providing a portal - an opening - into our special part of the world - Terra Sancta
in Bannockburn, Central Otago.
HARVEST
Foraged from Terra Sancta?s Bannockburn vineyards and surrounds during our wine
grape harvest, it expresses the character of our special part of the world at our favourite
time of year. From March through to May, botanicals of every kind are collected by the
Terra Sancta team from the vineyard, the banks of the Kawarau River and Central Otago
and stored in our winery in preparation for drying and extraction during spring.
CREATION
A result of exploration, experimentation, persistence and alchemy, the path to creation
began in 2017. With careful study and trial of over 30 medicinal and flavorful flowers,
fruits, bark, leaves, roots and seeds, the final secret blend of 16 botanicals was created in
December 2019. Each botanical extraction is prepared from scratch by Terra Sancta
before blending with the wine base. Entirely natural with no added colour. Bottled on
site at Terra Sancta under cork and wax.
BOTANICALS:
Pinot Gris wine base combined with a secret blend of 16 botanical sourced by Terra Sancta including Kanuka, Horopito, Rosehip, Elderberry, Yarrow, Thyme,Sage, Hawthorne & Artichoke.

Central Otago Pinot Noir is one of New Zealand's great wine success stories, especially when it comes from the sun drenched rocky soils of Bannockburn, one of the great sub regions of this majestic area.
The Mysterious Diggings Vineyard in Bannockburn is on the site of a former gold mine and is a dry, fruit driven and smooth Central Otago Pinot with an accessible price.
Nose: An intoxicating burst of maraschino cherry, ripe bramble and dark chocolate with hints of orange bitters and walnut liqueur.
Taste: Honey-grazed apricot and ripe fig with a crescendo of black cherry, angelica and muscovado.
Finish: Long and enveloping with dark manuka honey, herbal bitters and dark chocolate.
Unlike a typical 100% malt whiskey, Woodford Reserve is a Kentucky Straight Malt Whiskey crafted from 51% malt and aged in new charred oak barrels, making it the malt whiskey for bourbon drinkers.
The base of 51 % malt results in a whiskey that is richly flavorful and complex and amplifies the nutty characteristics found in the original Woodford Reserve.
