Burnt Spur

More than 25 years of grape-growing has proven the Martinborough region to be one of the premium wine producing areas in New Zealand and looking to the future the challenge will be to continue to produce world class wines of the finest quality. Burnt Spur is certainly achieving this from it’s 35 hectare single vineyard where the approach to the wine is to give the purest expression of the land where the vines are planted and from the climate the vines enjoy – giving a true sense of terroir.

Burnt Spur, Sauvignon Blanc, Martinborough, 2009
A classic Martinborough Sauvignon with wonderful concentration of fruit intensity. We didn’t think
we needed another New Zealand Sauvignon, then we tasted Burnt Spur…

Burnt Spur, Pinot Noir, Martinborough, 2009
A benchmark Kiwi Pinot that really asks questions of Burgundy at the same price. Bright red cherry
nose with hints of toast and forest floor aromas lead to a clean supple palate with a concentrated round
ripe cherry core of fruit surrounded by fine grained tannins and finishing with long silky texture.
