2023 Chardonnay
Our 2023 Chardonnay was crafted from organic, hand harvested fruit from the Oak Estate vineyard located just over the fence from us. Clone 15.
It was whole bunch pressed and fermented in oak to create a rich and supple chardonnay. Aged in French oak for 10 months prior to bottling the finished wine exhibits a fine balance between fruit flavours and subtle oak toastiness which is velvety and smooth on the palate.
2024 Herringbone Chardonnay
2024 was a stunning vintage in Hawke’s Bay resulting in fully ripe fruit in excellent condition. The fruit is all organically grown over the fence at the Oak Estate Vineyard.
The wine was hand harvested and whole bunch pressed straight to oak barrels for fermentation.
This wine is beautifully balanced with tropical fruit fruit flavours and toasty goodness from the oak.
WineOrbit Review, Sam Kim - 94/100
“The enticing bouquet shows golden peach, rockmelon, nougat, and assorted nut aromas with a hint of brioche. The palate is equally appealing with juicy fruit intensity, creamy texture, and finely pitched acidity, making it delectably appealing. At its best: now to 2028”.
Herringbone Merlot Malbec 2022
This wine was organically grown and hand harvested from our TK Vineyard so only the highest quality fruit was selected. The wine is a blend of 60% Merlot and 40% Malbec.
After fermentation the wine was aged in French oak for 12 months. The resulting wine is full bodied and smooth with an up front fruitiness backed up with lingering fine tannins providing structure and mouthfeel.
This wine is drinking remarkably well already but will also cellar for up to 10 years.
Herringbone Syrah 2023
The 2023 Herringbone Syrah was made from 100% hand harvested, Syrah grapes from our vineyard. After fermentation the wine was matured for 12 months in premium French oak barrels and is now ready for release.
This is the perfect wine to share now that the cooler months are upon us. It is smooth on the palate with some lovely plum and berry notes up front and a nice subtle spice to finish.
This wine will continue to improve in the bottle and will cellar well for 7 years but is ready to drink now if you can’t wait!
“Bright and youthfully attractive, the wine shows Black Doris plum, spiced cherry, tar, game and floral aromas on the nose, leading to a gorgeously succulent palate that’s supple and rounded. Elegant and beautifully layered with fine texture and polished tannins, finishing lingering and complex.” Wineorbit
2024 Herringbone Syrah
2024 was a stunning vintage for Syrah in Hawke’s Bay. Perfect growing conditions allowed the fruit to fully ripen on the vine before harvest.
The grapes were fermented with natural yeasts and matured for 12 months in premium French oak barrels.
If you are looking for a plush, luscious wine that is silky smooth on the palate then this is the one for you.
“It's splendidly fruited and inviting on the nose, showing Black Doris plum, blueberry, rich floral, warm spice, and roasted nut aromas. The palate displays excellent weight and a plump mouthfeel, wonderfully framed by silky texture and beautifully integrated tannins. Structured and harmonious with a persistent, sturdy finish. From the Bridge Pa district. At its best: 2026 to 2036.” Sam Kim, Wineorbit. 94/100
