"Intense and expressive pinot noir with plum, dark cherry, spice, thyme and anise, plus subtle spicy oak. A very impressive wine from a very good vintage. Power that’s delivered with considerable finesse" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Jan 2021

"A pungent, complex wine aromatically with an array of characteristics... dark berry compote, pot pourri, botanicals, and a savoury, almost vegemite note. A bold yet charming wine on the palate with plenty of flesh, and fruit weight, dark chocolate, and berry flavours, zesty acidity, and sappy, lively tannins. Moreish" NZ Wine Rater, Sep 2021

Aromas of deep black doris plum, and dark cherry. Rich on the palate with blackcurrant, plum, forest floor notes and subtle spice. An elegant wine with classy tannins and a long vibrant finish.

This wine is from their BioGro certified organic and Demeter certified biodynamic estate vineyard located in the Bendigo sub-region of Central Otago. The vineyard was planted in 1998 after careful site selection. The soils on the beautiful north facing slope are Waenga fine sandy loam and Letts steepland with an elevation of 217 – 264 metres, on 44.55° south. Clones: 10/5, 5, 115, 667, 777 & Abel.

The season started with mild temperatures throughout Spring, an earlier than usual budburst and rainfall in late Nov/early Dec providing good levels of moisture. They were challenged with two severe cold fronts during budburst and flowering which despite frost fighting efforts resulted in a smaller crop. Warm and settled weather followed producing overall a hotter than usual growing season. With veraison starting in the last week of January, they began (to expect) yet another early harvest. The 2019 vintage impression is extremely good quality.

Hand-picked on the 28th March, 4th and 8th April. Each clone was small batch vinified with a small percentage of whole cluster per ferment. Cold Soaked for up to 7 days before indigenous yeast fermentation kicked in. Gentle plunging each day, followed by post maceration of up to 9 days to ensure optimum fruit and tannin balance. Total time on skin; 19-24 days. Drained directly into selected French oak barriques (33% new) where the wine aged for 12 months during which wild malolactic fermentation occurs. The winemaking was very much in keeping with the traditional practices of the Old World. The winemaker, Rudi Bauer, has combined these techniques, and his own personal understanding, to create this wine.

Durable but don't give this to them as an everyday chew toy.
Color: Orange, Size: Large
My Catahoula loves these things. Great for a training aid and to let them get their zoomies out but not durable enough for an idle chew toy.

Great for dogs that love cat toys
Size: Small - 2 Count (Pack of 1)
I have a 45# dog who loves to play with cat toys. She's a strange one, but it's what she likes. She also loves ChuckIt balls (glow in the dark, squeaker, rubber, etc.). We bought 2 2-packs and we're glad we did. These are about the side of ping pong balls or golf balls. Yes, if your dog's an aggressive chewer or smaller than a teacup these will probably not last long. Yes, my weirdo dog almost immediately picked all the "fuzz" off the ball because that's what she does. The quality and durability of the ball haven't been affected, it's just a bald little ball. Highly recommend for any non-aggressive chewers that LOVE cat-sized toys.

Not very durable
Size: Small - 2 Count (Pack of 1)
I purchased some of these balls a while back and had forgotten how quickly my yorkie puppy was able to destroy them.. I recently ordered some more bc I saw them on sale. I now have another yorkie pup that also loves to play ball. They actually play ball with each other. Within 24 hrs, the balls are fraying and they are getting choked on the fuzzy s off the balls. I'm not going to bother to return 3 2pks bc they were so cheap. Now I know why.

This ball seems to be a counterfeit.

This ball seems to be a counterfeit and if it is not, it was made not to be played with by animal or human. In a review I just read, Iduna had posted this: Iduna 1.0 out of 5 stars Only for the most docile of play Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2024 Size: Large - Pack of 2Verified Purchase I thought it was great that these came in all sizes and bought the large for an urban dog park hoping it would not go through the slats of the fence and bought these as sort of a test before I bought the launcher. While the sizing was great unfortunately each one lasted a little more than half an hour. The rubber sphere part is constructed of two halves and I don't know if there's any sort of sealant between those two halves or if it's just held together by the thin tennis ball type cover but some bouncing off of the turf covered concrete and dog play upon retrieval caused the two rubber halves to separate and a few more tosses led it to quit bouncing and sort of squished together when the dogs grabbed it. That caused the thin tennis ball type material to fray and all was lost. This post was more than true without any exaggeration. Our dog fetched it in the house and tore it up within 5 mins. The original Chuckit launcher and ball was our first purchase thinking that these would be great balls to replace the Launcher ball which actually lasted our dog about 3 months of constant play and grinding on it (He loved that thing). This one came apart very easily as you can see, but the smell of the broken rubber was extremely solvent smelling (like toluene) of which I have good experience with chemicals like it from the industry in which I worked. Industrial solvents are definitely bad for our pets and that is the smell that comes out of this broken ball even at a distance. It filled our kitchen with the stench. I find this rather suspect when the description says: "this toy is designed with an extra-thick natural rubber core". In any case, the ball fell apart quickly and it is not like the launcher ball at all. I coach tennis and a real tennis ball would be better for our dog than this thing. Broken tennis balls don't smell like that at all and they last much longer and cost the same amount for 3 or 4 vs 2.
