The Selaks Essentials range is made in an approachable style highlighting the fresh vibrant fruit character of each variety. These are wines suitable for all occasions, delivering excellent quality and consistency every vintage. This Pinot Noir has flavours of rich, sweet fruit and cherry with a fine tannin structure and spicy lingering finish.

Pepper & spice - because the light oak touch has imparted the delicious bright berry fruit flavours with subtle notes of peppercorn, nutmeg and clove.

Selaks The Taste Collection is a celebration of the generous and distinct flavours that have made Selaks wines so extraordinary and sought after for over 80 years.

The wine is black/purple in colour, the nose displays subtle vanilla/cedar oak, mulberry, chocolate, spice and Satsuma Plum. This powerful Shiraz shows distinctive regional characters of dark chocolate, black prunes, pepper, licorice and spicy cedary oak on the palate, with ripe loganberry fruit and oak perfectly integrated.

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 nose exhibits perfumed violets and dark red fruit of plum and cherry. The palate is soft, with rich ripe fruit and fine tannin structure balanced nicely with integrated lingering oak, resulting in a palate of length and complexity.

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.

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.

Deep ruby red in colour with aromas of black cherries, subtle coffee crème, redcurrants and dark plums. The palate is intense and immediately mouth-filling with sweet plums and toasty notes. Elegant and powerful, the wine displays fine tannins but with great acidity that gives the wine freshness. Charming and extremely enjoyable now and will age in the bottle well for years to come.

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.

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

Select parcels of Pinot Noir from around New Zealand went into this wonderfully fruit-driven wine, bursting with dark cherry and wild lavender aromas, with notes of red liquorice and clove and a smooth finish.
