Pale garnet with bright red hues. Lifted red cherry notes spring from the glass and are accompanied by subtle earthiness and sweet red berry influence with just a touch of spice. Supple fruit greats the palate, followed up with a dry, fine tannin structure through to the finish that is underpinned with delightful fruit sweetness.
Wai Wai is a private label produced by the Ant Moore winery in New Zealand. Wai means water in New Zealand’s native Maori language, water being the lifeline of agriculture and inherent in New Zealand’s island culture.
Fruit for this blend was sourced from the Upper Wairau Valley and the Waihopai Valley of Marlborough. Predominantly machine harvested, the fruit was transferred to open top fermenters ranging in size from 5T to 10T.
Pairs well with sushi, gouda cheese and a charcuterie board.
