The?Rivage Brut?starts its life as a dry, spicy, farmhouse style ale before being aged for 12 months in ex-Sauvignon Blanc barrels. The end result is a lightly tart, dry, fruity beer, perfect for the dinner table.

Not only did the Americans invent hot-rodding, they invented hop-rodding too. In the late 1960s a Tauranga teenager called John Reid threw a kiwi hat in that ring with the famed "Vandal", a dazzling green flake 1919 Dodge bucket. In his spirit we're rising to the other challenge with a beer named in its honour - a big, bitter APA groaning with whole cone Nelson Sauvin, Motueka and Riwaka hops. Like any good hotrod, it's built to attract as much attention as possible.

The classic Belgian wheat beer, spiced with bitter orange peel and coriander seeds. Soft, fruity, complex and quenching.

Vintage champagne is aged for a minimum of three years prior to disgorgement, over which time it develops intense fresh bakery aromas and retains a freshness, thanks to its long maturation time in lees in the bottle.

Veuve is named after the late, great Widow Clicquot, who was left not only a widow aged 27 but also in charge of running a champagne house. Her legacy is to have left both the brand and the region in better condition than she found them, mostly famously by inventing riddling; the turning of the bottle to remove the yeast sediment into its neck, prior to disgorgement. This resulted in higher quality, cleaner, fresher bubbles in both look and taste. Her quest was quality and she is widely credited with having raised it significantly in the Champagne region and in the bottles it produces.

The Samuel's Gorge McLaren Vale sparkling Shiraz is a labour of love, from grape to glass.

Bottle fermented, riddled by hand then disgorged after 12 months on lees, the 2016 vintage is liqueured with Oloroso and Topaque unique to Australian cellars.

The Comet Tail opens with blackcurrant, dark cherry and Mirabelle plum before floating across your palate with savoury liquorice and clove. Finishing long with chalky tannins, this traditional method wine is fresh and vibrant.

Whether at a party, starting your weekend with bacon & eggs, or enjoying a dark, decadent dessert, the 2016 Comet Tail is the perfect accompaniment to any occasion.

Hot Tip: Try with scored and slow roasted pork belly on a bed of halved oranges and white wine, orange and star anise reduction served with green beans & shallots and a summer slaw.

Lazzaroni Maraschino is one of the oldest liqueurs produced by Lazzaroni. In the company archive recipes and labels date back to 1860.

It is a clear, relatively dry liqueur made from the infusion of marasca cherries and their crushed pits, which give the liquid a slight bitter almond flavour.

Maraschino is largely appreciated as liqueur and it is also widely used in pastry

Night Spirit Imperial Stout is a luscious black ale that has been aged more than 10 months in whisky casks that held very special NZ single malt whisky for more than 20 years. The casks have a great story to tell and amazing flavours to contribute to the beer.

Originally these American oak casks held American bourbon from J. T. S. Brown and Sons (now Heaven Hill) and were coopered in the early 1960?s. The resulting beer is deep, dark, and intense in flavour with notes of oak, roasted barley, black malts, vanilla, and whisky.
There were a very limited number of NZ Whiskey Co. barrels, and we can coax the whiskey character out of a barrel and into a beer only once. After that, the barrel may offer oak flavour, but the whiskey character is essentially lost. Each bottle is hand numbered. The 2017 release is sold out. Annual releases are planned for 2018 ? 2021 and supply is very limited.

Count yourself fortunate if you are lucky enough to get your hands on some of these bottles. It is a unique experience which can?t be repeated and the beer will age gracefully for years. We expect the sweet spot to be around 3-5 years. Do not serve cold! Treat it like a port or red wine and serve it in an elegant glass.

12% ABV.

Jagger Pinot Gris is one of the most luscious, dry-ish Gris in store and comes from Marlborough grown grapes. Spicy notes and fresh white pear add balance and appeal to every sip. 

St Kevin, the man on our bottle, stood apart.  This whiskey does the same.  It has sucked the marrow out of two casks.  An American Bourbon barrel gives sweet, toasted vanilla notes.  A Spanish Oloroso Sherry barrels adds hints of dark, dried fruit and a slight nuttiness.  Non-chill-filtered for a truer character.

The scent of fine citrus aromas blends in with distinctive floral notes of jasmine and orange blossoms. Fresh and balanced on the palate, with notes of grapefruit, cedar and lemon, sweetened by vanilla hints.

Glowing ruby red. Pleasant and fruit bouquet with hints of almond. Glides over the palate, smooth and harmonious. Aftertaste low in tannins. Recommended for light meals and as a pleasant and agreeable drinking wine.
