- 'On the palate - tense, youthful, firm, fruity, savoury and dry. All the flavours suggested on the nose come alive on the palate, but this wine also needs time to integrate more to find its true balance. Firm tannins and medium+ acidity offer a strong foundation. A lovely wine with medium-minus weight, but lovely intensity and flavour.' - Cam Douglas, MW.
- Intensely concentrated with layers of exotic dark fruits and spices, with classy French oak providing a sturdy canvas for the pristine fruit.
- The 2018 vintage was another strong one for Wanaka - and Akitu is their bright new star to join Rippon and Maude.
- Enjoy in its vivacious youth or cellar through until 2028.
- Screwcap. 14.0% alcohol content.
