The Taste Collection is a celebration of the generous and distinct flavours that have made Selaks wines so extraordinary and sought after for more than 90 years. Tropical Sauvignon Blanc, packed with juicy citrus flavours. Layer in passionfruit and melon undertones and you get a flavour explosion waiting to happen. Definitely a wine to delight your friends with.

On the nose, are notes of citrus, toasted almond and apple. The palate is focused and bright, with hints of grapefruit, nectarine and peach. The acidity is firm and linear, giving backbone to the soft orchard-fruit core and carrying through to a long fragrant finish.

Vibrant green in colour, the nose is fresh with lime juice cordial, white peach and hints of subtle creamy French oak. The palate is crisp and fresh, lime and honey dew melon linger, intertwined with well integrated oak and defined acidity that gives structure and length.

This is a fruit driven Hawkes Bay Merlot ready to drink or for the short term cellar. A perfect match with roast lamb and minted potatoes.

The palate is full and generous, sweet tropical fruits combine with characteristic pinot gris texture creating mouth filling length. Pinot gris is delicious sipped solo or enjoyed with seared or grilled fish and simple oven-roasted chicken.

Bright, pure, well-etched fruit defines this delicious wine. Bursts of lemon and lime, peach and ripe apple are almost jammy, punctuated by high acidity, which heightens the spicy palate. A dollop of sweetness completes the package.

Cool red berry fruits, but berry fruits that are also ripe and rounded. The tannins are smooth and welcoming, yet cabernet tannins will do what cabernet tannins will do: sweep through the palate. Accompanying them is a neat acidity and a slick, balanced alcohol. Cabernet sauvignon in equilibrium.

Rich red berry flavours (grenache) then earth and spice and plums (shiraz) and thirdly a long, leafy back-palate (yes, mataro - you've worked this game out now, haven't you...) The sum, however, is much more than the parts. The tannins are neat but not in any way unnoticed. Acidity holds the line. The pure fruit and berry notes are balanced by the tannins and the oak's spice.

A soft and gently rounded palate with ample rich fruits smoothly laced with bucolic tannins and framed by a keen keel of stirring acidity. Plums and blackberries return along with hints of milk chocolate. The giving blackberry and plum fruit is perfectly counter-weighted by the strangely reassuring gruffness of the tannins.

Smoking Loon The Original Old Vine Zinfandel is a striking deep, inky purple colour in the glass. Aromas of ripe raspberry, black cherry, peppercorn and toasted coconut lift from the glass. This rich, medium-bodied wine is full of flavour with loads of fresh red fruits; raspberry, pomegranate and a healthy dose of that classic Zinfandel spice. This is a bold wine with good structure and lively acidity making it a perfect match for any type of BBQ.

Delicious zesty fruit meets gorgeous minerality. A generously concentrated palate with white fleshy stone fruits, fresh lime & tropical lusciousness. Fantastic balance with a home run of juicy acidity & a lasting textural finish.

A wine of power & drive with a strong sustained finish of liquorice, spices & impressive oak.
