Huntress Waihonga 2024
Appropriately, Waihonga translates to nectare. Of the gods we'd say, this is beautifully balanced skin contact Pinot Gris. Like biting into a piece of just-picked stone fruit, it has texture and firmness, with orange pith, ginger and apricot aromatics. Fruit from the Osawa Vineyard in Hawkes Bay was fermented and soaked on skins for 13 days.
We go on about âplaceâ a lot when talking about wine. With Jannine Rickards (the Huntress herself), you get a sense of how genuine and important that is. In collaboration with excellent growers, her wines come from the Wairarapa. Jannine forages, fishes and hunts. This connection, and the respect she has for her environment shapes these beautiful wines.
âWe are intentionally looking to bring layers to the wines that will unfold with a delicious feast of wild foods and homegrown vegetables. We must have respect for living creatures and an understanding of the intricacies of life cycles, seasons, and our place amongst them. We are as much a part of the land as the land is part of usâ - Jannine Rickards, Huntress
