The Taste Collection is a celebration of the generous and distinct flavours that have made Selaks wines so extraordinary and sought after for more than 90 years. Buttery Chardonnay, smooth, creamy and simply melts in your mouth. The beautifully integrated toasty oak results in flavours of brioche and vanilla, while still enabling the delightful ripe stone fruit characters to shine through.

The Taste Collection is a celebration of the generous and distinct flavours that have made Selaks wines so extraordinary and sought after for more than 90 years. Rich Berry Merlot, the rich berry fruit flavours gently cascade along the palate, underpinned by soft fine tannins. A sumptuous, fruit-forward wine with lingering flavour right to the finish.

An expressive Syrah with gentle floral notes that are supported by savoury, umami flavours. The palate is elegant yet juicy and delicious. Fermentation and aging in clay amphorae pot has created a pure expression of Syrah that shows the exciting terroir of the Raupo vineyard, situated in the Omaka Valley of Marlborough.

On the nose, are notes of citrus, toasted almond and apple. The palate is focused and bright, with hints of grapefruit, nectarine and peach. The acidity is firm and linear, giving backbone to the soft orchard-fruit core and carrying through to a long fragrant finish.

Brimming with concentrated ripe aromas of warm autumnal interlaced with savoury notes. On the palate this Sauvignon Blanc shows the full spectrum of flavours. Medium to full-bodied, it's plump and silky on the palate, showcasing round fig and melon notes.

A truly charming and graceful Rosé that has been crafted to wholly represent a small, special plot of Pinot Noir within the Raupo Creek vineyard. Highly aromatic, brimming with classic Pinot Noir Rosé notes of wild berry fruits, and ripe orchard fruits. Exudes elegance and purity on the palate, yet is highly textural and layered. Finishes dry, with a refreshing acidity that creates tension and completes the wine.

Primary aromas of blackberry and dark cherry are complemented by notes of dark chocolate, freshly turned earth and bay leaf. Balanced acidity, textured tannins and subtle French oak envelop and focus the sweet, dark berry fruit into the long finish.

Silhouette Wines are crafted among the rugged peaks and picturesque mountains of Central Otago. As the sun rises & sets over these majestic landscapes, stunning silhouettes layer over the vineyards in which are grapes are grown. Produced by Mt Michael Wines, this Pinot Noir continuously collects accolades highlighting the quality of the wine.

Cool red berry fruits, but berry fruits that are also ripe and rounded. The tannins are smooth and welcoming, yet cabernet tannins will do what cabernet tannins will do: sweep through the palate. Accompanying them is a neat acidity and a slick, balanced alcohol. Cabernet sauvignon in equilibrium.

Rich red berry flavours (grenache) then earth and spice and plums (shiraz) and thirdly a long, leafy back-palate (yes, mataro - you've worked this game out now, haven't you...) The sum, however, is much more than the parts. The tannins are neat but not in any way unnoticed. Acidity holds the line. The pure fruit and berry notes are balanced by the tannins and the oak's spice.

A soft and gently rounded palate with ample rich fruits smoothly laced with bucolic tannins and framed by a keen keel of stirring acidity. Plums and blackberries return along with hints of milk chocolate. The giving blackberry and plum fruit is perfectly counter-weighted by the strangely reassuring gruffness of the tannins.

Aromas of lifted, ripe tropical fruit among a mingling of citrus peel, with some exotic guava in the background. The delicate oak influence underpins the fruit on the nose and in the palate gives an immediate softness and accessibility. This swiftly fills the mouth and the balanced acid structure emerges through the folds of supple savoury and sweet fruit characters. The finish is long and, delicious.
