"Ripe, fruity, varietal and enticing bouquet with aromas of buttered peach and baked apple, fresh and roasted cashew nut, burnt butter, nectarine and barrel spices. Near full-bodied as the wine touches the palate, flavours mirror the bouquet with medium acidity, a satin cream mouthfeel and fine tannins. Well made, dry and ready for drinking from 2023 through 2028" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Nov 2023

"Beautifully fruited and inviting, the bouquet shows ripe stone fruit, rockmelon, vanilla and roasted hazelnut aromas. The palate displays lovely weight and rounded mouthfeel, splendidly supported by creamy texture and juicy acidity, making it flavoursome and immediately appealing" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Aug 2023

"Bright, pale straw-yellow, even colour throughout. The nose is gently full with a lovely richness of butterscotch, popcorn, roasted hazelnut, flint underlying stonefruit and orchard fruit. Medium-full-bodied aromas of apple and nectarine melded with butterscotch, popcorn, roasted hazelnut and a hint of the flinty element. The toasty expression flows with fresh acidity on a creamy, rich mouthfeel" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, Dec 2023

A lovely pale straw gold, boasting an aromatic profile of white florals, sweetcorn, stonefruit, and honeydew melon. A hint of lees influence and subtle French oak adds depth. Medium to fullbodied, with a glorious texture, weight, and length, culminating in a delightful creamy finish. Ready to drink now, it will improve with careful, cool cellaring.

The 2022 vintage arrived early in Gisborne, marked by a warm summer and consistent rainfall, creating optimal ripening conditions. Our Reserve Chardonnay is crafted from a meticulously managed single parcel of fruit from back Ormond Road, which excelled during this season. The entire wine underwent barrel fermentation, followed by a complex malolactic fermentation. After this process, the wine rested in barrels until preparation for bottling. To enhance body and richness, 25% new French oak was incorporated.

Food Pairing: Ideal with seafood, chicken, or pork.

Slow, sorry but good
Format: Kindle
This was a slow moving book. Lots of character pov chapters, lots of superfluous descriptions and endless courtly appearances stalled this book to start. Once you get into the heart of the story, it takes off. Before you know it the book is done. My favorite character is Reyna. She is so strong. She is true to herself. She gets into a lot of trouble with her headstrong ways but it's entertaining. I have high hopes for Lorcan. He is honorable to a fault. Thane had turned out to be better than I thought but i still don't like him. Eislin is useless. Great plot twists at the end. I'm looking forward too book 2.

Very detailed! Beautiful world building! Strong Heroine!
Format: Kindle
Starts off a little slow and confusing with different POV’s, but starts to all come together towards the middle to make an elaborate plot line and makes it all worth it. Beautiful world building and attention to detail as well as great writing. The cliffhanger was gut wrenching! Can’t wait for the next book!

Interesting
Format: Kindle
This was a very captivating book once you got into it thoroughly. But the third person perspective was a bit hard to get used to. But as you got into it and followed the different characters, it was interesting and filled with intrigue, conflict and forbidden love. I can’t wait to read the next one and to complete the series.

OUTSTANDING
Format: Kindle
This was very, very good. The world is vast and characters are complex. There is a good plot with a whole lot going on. This is well written. Good twists and turns and some heart breaking moments. You will love these characters, they have heart and loyalty. I am hoping that there will be several more books. We've yet to see anything from the Sea Court but only a mention of them here and there. The Wood Court was given a quick couple of scenes, and only as far as some warriors, we've yet to enter their court and the Shadow Court, I'm not sure if they will be a force for good or bad, but they definitely will play a much bigger role moving forward. This is primarily the Ice and Air Courts. Told in multiple views, which I loved, it gives you a chance to see things from different eyes. There's alot of political maneuvering and deception. I loved it and will pick up the next book as it becomes available. If you like The Fae and the courts, you should love this. I think the author has mucn in store for us.

Definitely worth the read!
Format: Kindle
After taking a deep breath and taking in that wicked twist of an ending, I have finally composed myself. My first thought when I started this book was that I love Reyna's character. I was intrigued by her connection with her familiar and the Ruin that is plaguing her land. It came as no surprise that she took her sister's place in an attempt to protect her. When they reach the Air Court everything slows down. This is where it was iffy for me. First of all, I like multiple POV's in books however 7 is a bit much. It starts to interrupt the story line. I felt like I was finally making progress connecting with one character, then it was switched to another person. I felt they all had necessary or pertinent information but not necessarily were they all POV worthy. The only other thing that annoyed me was that Reyna constantly was " trapped." She would rush off without thinking, only to need rescuing. She is brilliant in a fight, but she really doesn't think through anything. Lorcan is amazing. I know he might be on the "bad" list, but his background is so interesting. Eislyn(Reyna's sister) is really so sweet, but calculating. I enjoyed her and Thane's dialogue. The author did an amazing job with the imagery in this book. Everything was so detailed it was easy to fall into the scene. I love unexpected twists and while part of the ending I expected, I wasn't expecting how it took place. All in all, I found it very entertaining and I am very invested in continuing this series. Favorite quotes: "The truth may be twisted but never false." "Who was she if she was not the enemy of the Air Court? What was her purpose of she no longer has that?" "In a war-torn land, love was always a lie."
