Very leafy and herbal—think crushed tomato leaf—but there’s an adequate complement of tropical fruit to keep things moving along. Would work just right with parsley-laden mussels.

This wine features a unique combination of stone fruit, citrus and chili pepper, making it a treat to pair with piquant dishes like ceviche. It’s medium-bodied, but with plenty of freshness and zest on the finish.

Off-dry in style, with forward aromas of fresh pineapple and a touch of chalk dust, this is a medium-bodied Pinot Gris with plenty of ripe melon and red currant flavors balanced by a touch of apple skin on the finish.

A solid effort, Waimea’s 2008 Chardonnay boasts plenty of toasty, vanilla-scented oak supported by citrusy fruit. It’s full in body and creamy in texture, with a long, lemon-pineapple finish. Drink it now and over the next year or so.

Reasonably priced for the quality, Waimea’s 2008 Barrel Selection Pinot Noir is surprisingly rich and layered for the vintage, with savory notes of mushrooms, coffee and roasted meat backed by ample black cherry and plum fruit. Drink now–2015.

Marked by intense petrol overtones and flavors concentrated to almost the point of salinity, this makes a bold statement for Nelson as a Riesling-growing region. The sensation of briny minerality lingers on the finish.
