Description

Forrest Estate, based in Marlborough, is known for its pioneering spirit and innovative approach to less-familiar varietals. The team, led by Dr. John Forrest, has long championed aromatic whites and alternative plantings, crafting wines with precision, freshness, and a sense of adventure. Arneis, a rare Piedmontese variety, thrives in their vineyards, yielding a wine that’s both distinctive and elegant.

Smells

A lifted bouquet of white blossom, fresh pear, quince, and stonefruit, with subtle notes of almond, fennel, and a hint of wet stone minerality.

Tastes

Textural and vibrant, with layers of ripe nectarine, nashi pear, and citrus peel balanced by a savoury edge of marzipan and bitter almond. A fine chalky seam of acidity carries the flavours long, finishing with a crisp, mouthwatering snap of minerality. This is a wine of Italian character reimagined through Marlborough clarity, both refreshing and gastronomically versatile. Enjoy with fresh salads, seafood or poultry dishes, now through to 2028. The recommended serving temperature is 7-9 degrees.
