Sauvignon Blanc 2016



This Sauvignon Blanc has a fresh tropical bouquet with subtle hints of gooseberry and soft apple notes. These are followed through on the palate. The wine is dry and is a light soft style avoiding aggressive acidity but finishing on a soft refreshing note.

Riesling
Sorry sold out



With floral notes and hints of honey tones and apricot, the wine has a luscious and full flavour.  It displays citrus and lime characters with a beautifully balanced acidity in a full, harmonious culminating finish.

"It is youthful, yet instantly appealing on the nose displaying mandarin, lemon/lime zest and white stone fruit characters with a hint of flinty complexity. The palate is focused and tightly structured,and offers excellent fruit purity and concentration, beautifully enhanced with subtle sweetness and bright acidity. Medium-dry. At its best : now to 2026" Sam Kim

Pinot Noir Ros
é
Maybern Single Vineyard


The colour is melon / strawberry, this Rosé has delicate aromas of ripe strawberries, berry, melon and peach.  This single vineyard Rosé displays creamy peach and berry on the mid palate with fresh melon tones and tastes of red summer fruits. Dry, well structured and complex, its crisp acidity makes it ideal for enjoying with grilled seafood and summer salads.  Drink now until 2018.

Gewürztraminer 2017

Our flagship wine  - o
ne of New Zealand’s most awarded Gewürztraminers, the Johanneshof vintage 2017 is full and lengthy with softly concentrated
aromas of rose-petal florals, Turkish Delight,  honey, and fresh, steely, root-ginger notes. This has excellent presence, balance and unfolds layers of detail. Medium-dry to taste and medium-full bodied, the palate has up-front and intense flavours of Turkish Delight, rose-petal florals, savoury honey and musk notes, entwined with root-ginger elements.

Johanneshof Cellars  Pinot Noir 2016 Maybern Single Vineyard Reserve


Our Maybern vineyard is a tribute to Warwick's parents May and Bernard - The Maybern vineyard is located here behind our cellar door in Koromiko - it is a 30 degree North West facing steep slope - making mechanical intervention tricky- all work on this vineyard is done by hand!
This Pinot is round and ripe for it's age, the flavours of cherries linger with a warm chocolate and raspberry nuanced finish. The soft tannins fill out the palate and give it a nice ageing potential.
At it's best: now to 2020
