A relatively young wine industry (with a few notable exceptions) in Kiwi, that has very quickly established itself as one of the leading lights of New World winemaking. With vineyards on both the North (eg. Hawkes Bay) and South (eg. Marlborough, Otago) Islands it was the vibrant Sauvignon Blancs that alerted the world to the quality of New Zealand.
Wines from New Zealand – Wines from the Otago Region and Beyond
Dwarfed at times by its neighbour, Australia, New Zealand is starting to earn more recognition for its wine production. There are vineyards located on the North as well as the South Islands of New Zealand, including Hawkes Bay and Marlborough. The Central Otago has earned the highest reputation for creating high quality wines from New Zealand, however, particularly of the Pinot Noir variety. This vibrant red wine is imbued with an earthiness that is unexpected and pleasing to the palate, which has won it numerous awards in the wine industry.
Another category of wines from New Zealand that have earned a high amount of recognition are the Sauvignon Blanc varieties. These white wines are snappy, bright, and vibrant, with the aroma of freshly cut grass. This makes them an ideal accompaniment to freshly caught seafood, which constitutes a high percentage of the Kiwi diet. Other white wines from New Zealand include Riesling, Pinot Blanc, and Chenin Blanc, among others.
Because the wine producing industry has really only taken off in New Zealand in the past two decades, many people still are unfamiliar with these varieties. To help determine if the high reputation of wines from New Zealand is warranted, it can be a good idea to order bottles for home delivery. These orders can be placed online and you could have your bottles of New Zealand Pinot Noir or Sauvignon Blanc by the next day. They also make ideal gifts, as part of a gift hamper or on their own.
