Another Outstanding review from Wine Orbit for our 2023 AC Reserve Chardonnay

95 points, 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“It’s immensely complex and inviting on the nose, showing golden peach, vanilla pod, roasted hazelnut, and almond meal characters. The concentrated palate delivers outstanding weight and depth, wonderfully enhanced by creamy texture and beautifully pitched acidity, leading to an impressively long, satisfying finish” - @wineorbit

This limited release Hawke’s Bay varietal is an excellent option to enjoy this summer. Learn more about this wine, available now at our website: acwine.co.nz (link in bio)

A wonderful 95 point review of our 2023 AC Reserve

A wonderful 95 point review of our 2023 AC Reserve Viognier by Sam Kim at Wine Orbit.

“Richly fruited and gorgeously expressed, the bouquet shows ripe apricot, mango, vanilla, cashew, and subtle spice aromas, leading to a wonderfully weighted palate offering plush texture backed by beautifully pitched acidity. Splendidly flavoursome and highly enjoyable. At its best: now to 2030”

Our Reserve Chardonnay has a "complex and very attractive bouquet filled with scents of ripe stone fruits and barrel spices, wood smoke and youthful energy. A wine that is excellent now, yet will be even better once it settles into the rhythm of ageing and harmony" - Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, 94 points

What a start to 2025, this Excellent review of our 2023 AC Reserve Chardonnay. 94 points from Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier

“Complex and very attractive bouquet filled with scents of ripe stone fruits and barrel spices, wood smoke and youthful energy. Full-bodied on the palate with a raw energy and impact from oak and fruit flavours, tannins and phenolics from barrel and fruit skin contact. Acidity accentuates the vanilla and clove qualities from the wood as well as the youthful sensory impacts. A wine that is excellent now, yet will be even better once it settles into the rhythm of ageing and harmony” - Excellent, 94 points

A wonderful experience tasting the fine wines at Château Musar 🍷🍇

"In 1930, at just 20 years old, Gaston Hochar founded Château Musar, inspired by Lebanon’s 6,000-year winemaking tradition and his travels in Bordeaux". Now 96 years on, this family-owned winery continues to produce exceptional wines which reflect Lebanon's unique terroir.

Abe managed to find a bottle a few years ago in Parnell, Auckland as a birthday wine for Alwyn, so it was special to visit the winery. Thank you to Fadia for your great hospitality 🇱🇧

On our first day in Lebanon, we stopped beside the road to see an old castle fort built on top of a rock (visible at the end of the video). Suddenly a herd of mountain goats, led by their shephard, began to wind their way down the cliff next to us for a drink of water. It was a beautiful area filled with olive trees. A unique & special sight 🫒🐐

We had an enjoyable time at Vinifest in Lebanon recently. A wine festival which takes place every October, offering thousands of visitors four amazing days. We went early on Wednesday evening (the opening night) and it was a fantastic experience trying a range of incredible wines & gourmet food from local producers 😄

We got to meet some wonderful people, learn more about the industry in the region, and of course, taste their amazing wines! It was a real highlight to savour 🍷✨️
