Shangri-La Art Series

Nelson's intense colours and vibrancy have inspired our Shangri-La art series, with Michelle Bellamy's painting "Spring at Blackenbrook's" adorning the Sauvignon Blanc label.

Spring at Blackenbrook's by Michelle Bellamy, Nelson, New Zealand

Michelle Bellamy is a contemporary landscape artist. The purity and brightness of her palette capture the clarity of New Zealand’s light with stunning colour and detail. Through precision brushwork and careful layering, acrylic paint serves to render extraordinary the iconic and much loved beauty of the Nelson region.

Tasting Notes

Highly aromatic and focused, our Sauvignon Blanc 2020 is vibrantly fruity with pure passionfruit and gooseberry flavours supported by an interwoven thread of acidity.

It’s our Moutere clay soils, the dazzling Nelson sun and the finger prints of our fabulous team that make our wines unique. We hope you’ll enjoy!
