Reviews & Accolades

    Pegasus Bay Finale Noble Semillon Sauvignon 375ml 2019

    "A super-delicious offering, the perfumed bouquet shows orange marmalade, honey, grilled peach and potpourri aromas, leading to an opulent palate displaying delectable sweetness brilliantly balanced by vibrant acidity. Richly textured and creamy, making it hugely appealing." 95 Points, Sam Kim – Wine Writer, NZ, Wine Orbit, www.wineorbit.co.nz

    "Fantastic bouquet of preserved stone fruits, honey and honeysuckle, moments of elderflower and beeswax, exotic fruits and grapefruit. Creamy, slippery textures touch the palate first followed by a core of fruit flavours that reflect the bouquet, some fragrant baking spice moments, high acidity, plenty of sweetness, balanced, exotic, fresh and lengthy." 95 Points, Cameron Douglas MS, www.camdouglasms.com

    "Flavours that suggest a medley of dried fruits, including pineapple, apricot and peach with a drizzle of honey supported by enough acidity to prevent any suggestion of cloying. A luscious, decadent dessert wine." 95 Points, Bob Campbell MW, The Real Review

    "Quite a stunning bouquet with intense, complex, savoury aromas of lavender, gooseberry, apricot, lanolin, candle wax, and plenty of toasty, vanilla oak. Medium-bodied, honeyed, and lush with plenty of acidity to balance and a long, vibrant finish. A well-poised wine with plenty of enjoyment factor. " 95 Points Source: New Zealand Wine Rater, Stephen Bennett MW, Lynnette Hudson

    "Bright, golden-yellow with some depth, even colour throughout. The nose is full, rich with complex aromas of dried apricot, dried apple, grilled tomato, entwined with beeswax, honey, flint, candied ginger and a hint of positively charming VA nuance. Full-bodied, luscious to taste, a captivative palate with multilayers, aromas of dried apricot, baked apple, peach, charmed with pickled ginger, cardamom, unfolding honey, beeswax, candied fennel and flint lingering. The abundance flavours present with clarity and layers; impeccable acidity balance contributes to an un-cloying and moreish, lasting finish on a creamy and opulent mouthfeel. This excellently complex noble Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc blend has vivid layers and brilliant acid balance." 19+/20, Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Wine Reviews


    "Two years in oak adds depth and stunningly savoury complexity to this highly viscous, botrytis-influenced blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon. A luscious, honeyed sweet white that is full-bodied with amazing depth on concentration and a long zesty finish." 19/20, Joelle Thomson, Drinksbiz
