It\u2019s a Spring in which visitor numbers have been decimated in our biggest City. No New Zealanders want to travel to the only place in the country that seemingly carries a threat of catching COVID-19. Even natives of Tamaki Makaurau, eager to follow tourism marketing\u2019s new mantra of \u2018Do something new New Zealand\u2019 have taken to the regions, leaving the city largely devoid of people. As such, the visit of one of Hawke\u2019s Bay\u2019s best wine labels for a weekend afternoon\u2019s tasting is a Level-1 treat for Aucklanders.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Steve Smith MW<\/strong> brings the whole range of wines for us to taste \u2013 including a tableful of Pyramid Valley alongside the full CRU selection, and some Lowburn Ferry. A quick introduction to the wines from Steve, and some really rather delicious canap\u00e9s emerge from the kitchen at the venue, Vivace Restaurant<\/em>, as the grand tasting starts.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Most people get their arm twisted to try the Albarino as they arrive \u2013 I\u2019m a few minutes late and manage to side step straight over to the Chardonnay (I know). I\u2019ll give you an overview of the glasses I tried; then look out for separate reviews where I will go over a couple of the stand out wines.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Let\u2019s talk about Chardonnay. There are three in the CRU<\/strong> range, and two under the Pyramid Valley<\/strong> \u2018Appellation\u2019 label. The three CRU wines are from Hawke\u2019s Bay \u2013 one from the Howell vineyard<\/strong> that Steve Smith had a hand in establishing earlier in his career. The Heretaunga<\/strong> version is fruit-driven, lighter and mineral-tinged; the Omahu<\/strong> one is more concentrated \u2013 nutty and rich. From Marlborough, the new Appellation Pyramid Valley Chardonnay<\/strong> is a beauty \u2013 flinty, aromatic and sweet-fruited; whilst its sibling from North Canterbury is more savoury, textural and just darn delicious.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The range of whites has grown with two Sauvignon Blancs added \u2013 again, they travelled to Marlborough for great fruit and make a wine underpinned by all that\u2019s special about our country\u2019s most famous wine. It\u2019s tropical, citrus and cut grass, just bursting from the bottle. Another wine is termed Sauvignon Blanc + as it\u2019s enriched with a little Riesling, and there\u2019s also a straight Riesling coming from Marlborough also.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

CRU has had a range of opulent reds for a while now, and the Cantera<\/strong> continues to blaze away, with rich Spanish flavours and real power with its balance and depth. The Cabernet Franc<\/strong> we\u2019ve reviewed before, and I continue to regard this as the best of the CRU reds \u2013 with a lovely chewy crunch, and masses of blue fruit, with moss and bark savouriness. The Syrah<\/strong> too is very typical of the best of Hawke\u2019s Bay styles \u2013 red fruits, olive and liquorice.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Finally, moving on to the Pinots, and these present quite a spectrum of tastes. There are now three 2018 vintages from Central, and these are perhaps closer in style than the North Canterbury ones.. From the classic Gibbston style of the CRU Kawarau Pinot<\/strong>, to the (always) very classy Lowburn Ferry<\/strong>, and now a Pyramid Valley Central Otago Pinot<\/strong> joins the ranks. They all have plum, cherry, savoury and are fragrant with some mineral undertow. Differences can be tasted but they form a family style that is definitely worth investigating. I\u2019d recommend trying these three in a flight together and making notes \u2013 it\u2019s an interesting trip around Central in a glass (or three).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Lucky us\u2026 on the table alongside the new North Canterbury Pyramid Valley Pinot, were two of the classics that Smith and Sheth have inherited from the Weersing legacy \u2013 a 2016 Earth Smoke Pinot<\/strong>, and a 2016 Angel Flower Pino<\/strong>t as well. These two iconic wines deserve separate reviews, and will appear in these pages in short order.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Talking of the new wine on the roster \u2013 it\u2019s a 2018 \u2013 this was a belter. People are now talking of Waipara Pinot with the reverence of the first flush of Central Otago wines that took on the world. There are some truly magical wines emerging from vineyards that are getting some age on their vines, and real expression of this limestone-laden region is coming through. Bright fruit – but they\u2019re complex beasties of earth, herbal, spice and fruit all entwined, such that the whole is so well balanced, and complex. “New wine of the month” award for this one.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

You can visit Smith and Sheth at their home in Havelock North, and the Studio Experience comes well recommended. Also, they offer a Wine Club with a range of benefits, including 20% off wines. Online at smithandsheth.com. It\u2019s a range worth discovering<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
