Heron's Flight
When David Hoskins and Mary Evans first planted Chardonnay in Matakana in 1987; they were initially unaware of just how well-suited their land was to Italian grape varieties.
The Heron’s Flight vineyards are on gently sloping clay hills, with a warm dry micro-climate, offering the perfect New Zealand comparison to Tuscany and Piedmont! The focus quickly shifted exclusively to Sangiovese and Dolcetto, creating an intriguing Old-World point of difference to bring to the table.
Heron's Flight model themselves on a Tuscan farm, not only selling wine, but also making their own vinegar, verjus and olive oil.
