The Bookmark fortified wines embodies Angove's philosophy of providing the consumer with the highest possible quality product at a most affordable price. This wine was blended from selected parcels of old fortified tawny that have been aged in large and small oak barrels. It shows developed fruit/oak characters that are nicely underpinned by the use of the fine brandy spirit.

Intense colour with bright purple hues. Vibrant black fruits with rich dark chocolate and subtle vanillin oak aromas. Medium to full bodies palate weight, characterised by satisfying tannins and savoury masculine finish. An ideal accompaniment to red meat and premium cuts of prime beef.

Sharing the same impeccable breeding as its big brother, the youthful exuberance of Wee Angus is revealed through the gentle plummy characters of Merlot. A subtle touch of vanillin oak and a generous finish combine to create the perfect accompaniment to your next barbeque.

The Aotea by Seifried Syrah was blended from a small parcel of fruit from the Brightwater vineyard. The parcel was fermented separately and had an extended period in oak barriques. The wine is rich, warm and opulent with supple dark berry flavours complemented with warm cinnamon and hints of freshly ground black pepper. Layers of ripe flavours linger on the palate leaving a lasting impression.

Spicy at first with leather notes. It develops blackcurrant and toasted aromas. Full bodied, smooth tannins, a crisp acidity.

Elegant nose with aromas of tropical fruits and stone fruits combined with a hint of fresh hazelnut. Well-rounded and smooth with a well-balanced acidity.

Aromas of lemon curd and crushed almonds with supporting notes of grapefruit. There are aromatic notes too, notably Asian lily and citrus blossom. The palate is pure and focused with a line of acidity bring all of the structural components together. Finishing rich and long.

Dark red, purple hues. Amazing dark berry fruit in the raspberry black currant spectrum. The spice notes of Syrah are to the fore in this wine with a white pepper and Chinese five spice. As is Askerne's style, the fruit was aged in oak to accentuate the savoury notes and introduce aromas of vanilla and toast. The palate is especially vibrant with a line of acidity knitting the fleshiness and structural components together. Excellent concentration and vibrancy with a long finish.

Aged in French barrels for 12 months creating a soft earthy nose with blackcurrent aromas developing nicely. Ingratiate yourself with sweet varietal fruit and a lingering dark chocolate promise.

Lively and unexpected, the Aromatics range demonstrates the potential of Marlborough to bring out exciting character in cool-climate aromatic grapes. In NZ, the varietal is generally called Pinot Gris rather than Pinot Grigio and encompasses a wide range of residual sugar levels and styles. Astrolabe Marlborough Pinot Gris is a nod towards some of the more aromatic, finer examples of northern Italian, higher altitude Pinot Grigio as well as referencing a little the wines of Alsace, but it's pretty much a Kiwi style - a Marlborough style. Pear, quince and peach flavours dominate. An aromatic, crisp and precise wine, and stylistically dryer than most. A beautiful food wine that pairs with a wide range of food.

In the Province range, Astrolabe emphasises the varietal intensity created by Marlborough's leafy vineyards, ripe fruit and cool-climate winegrowing conditions. Astrolabe Chardonnay combines elegant texture with a tight structure. The natural stonefruit and citrus flavours are complemented by aromatic complexity and texture creating an elegant, dry and mouth-filling wine. Stone fruit, vanilla creaminess, toasty oak, pleasing weight and a long, dry and mineral finish. The length and subtle power and will satisfy those who mainly come to the category of Chardonnay with a background in drinking white Burgundies.
