It seems summer is here and our Pinot Noir Rosè 2017 is too! A crisp and refreshing wine with notes of berry on the nose and a cranberry-like character. Full in the palate with good persistence. We think it will complement just about any warm weather occasion. Available through the website store.

Bellbird Spring Dry Pinot Gris 2016 is in the latest New Zealand Listener magazine! Here's what Michael Cooper had to say.
"Showing strong personality, this wine is already drinking well. Fermented in old oak barrels, it is mouthfilling (13.5% alc/vol) and fleshy, with concentrated, peachy, slightly spicy and buttery flavours, a slightly oily texture and a rich, dry finish."

Dear friends, 

In the last 5 months we have had some big changes here at Bellbird Spring, the first being a change of ownership, from my parents to my wife and I. This is a generational change that is welcomed by all the family. Things will stay pretty much the same, we are still Bellbird Spring and I will continue to make beautiful eclectic wines. We also have a new release, read on for more about this spirit made from our own wine.
Here at the vineyard, good soil moisture has been added to by 47mm of rain in the last week or so,...

A counterpoint to the pure fruit expression of the Aqua Vitae. The Rustico is, as the name suggests, ‘rustic’. It is reminiscent of grappa and the complex and funky characters it is known for. A clear pot still brandy made from wine from our own vineyards, it is drunk as a digestif, and will complement an espresso coffee at the end of the meal.
