Amisfield are situated in the southern most wine growing region of New Zealand, at Lowburn in Central Otago, just north of the 45th Parallel. High altitudes and a cool climate, long summers and clean glacial soils, translate into limited yields of the finest aromatic, single vineyard Chenin Blanc. Amisfield is all about the voluptuous expression of Chenin Blanc and preserving the virtue of site, articulating pure and refined aromatics, while ensuring balance of residual sugar to crisp acidity.

The McWilliams winemaking team are blessed with access to some of the most splendid Sauvignon Blanc vineyards in Marlborough. Parcels of fruit from the Awatere Valley provide a steely and racy acidity, while grapes from the Wairau Valley display powerful and intense varietal expressions with lovely lifted passionfruit characters. A further component from the delta in upper Wairau contributes ripe and refined melon citrus flavours. Crafted to the post modern, early drinking, lighter in alcohol style, a smart choice alongside grilled fishes and chicken caesar.

Separated by the Tasman Sea but united by a passion for crafting nothing but the finest wines, the De Bortoli and Marris families have come together to write an exciting new chapter in the wonderful story of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. 3 Tales recounts the three stories that make up the background of a wine which binds two great southern lands. The perfect match to white meats, chicken recipes and the freshest fried fish, crisp acidity makes its ripe, herbaceous fruit flavours come alive.
