Millton 2006 Opou Vineyard Riesling (Gisborne)

  • Editors' Choice
  1. $22
For a wine with only 9% alcohol, this is surprisingly full bodied, with plenty of weight and richness. A bit of kerosene marks the nose, alongside scents of spice and bergamot, while the flavors run toward apple and citrus. It’s a bit sweet (29 g/l residual sugar), but balanced by decent acidity, and it ends in a long, mouthcoating finish. Drink now–2015, possibly…  — J.C.  (9/1/2008)

James Millton's Chenin Blanc is a unique Kiwi classic, and displays the variety's hallmark wooly character. It's buoyed by apple and melon notes, finishing with citrusy acids.  — J.C.  (12/22/2011)

Millton 2006 Riverpoint Vineyard Chardonnay (Gisborne)

  1. $16
This wine offers easy drinkability at a fair price. It starts off with apple and melon scents, then folds in subtle toast and vanilla shadings, while the flavors of white peach and citrus make it versatile with food. Drink now and over the next couple of years.  — J.C.  (9/1/2008)

A restrained style for Gisborne Chardonnay, with apple and citrus playing dominant roles. It’s unadorned and clean, with a crisp, mouthwatering character that serves it well with food. Drink now.  — J.C.  (7/1/2010)
