5 Stars - Michael Cooper, Winestate, March/April 2010
“Full of personality, this fleshy, hill-grown Gisborne wine from Millton has been certified organic.  Highly concentrated, it has grapefruit and peach flavours, with buttery and nutty notes adding complexity, a creamy texture and a slightly minerally streak.  It’s already quite open.”

2008 Clos de Ste Anne Pinot Noir

“In a sea of fine New Zealand Pinot Noir the 2008 Clos de Ste. Anne shines like a beacon. Combining purity of fruit with burgundian rusticity, it somehow straddles the best elements of old and new world wine. Smart but not precocious. Subtle but not boring. Elegance, style, grace and sheer class."

4.5 Stars ~ Michael Cooper, Winestate, March/April 2010
 "Perfumed, with a highly spiced, slightly smoky bouquet, this single-vineyard Gisborne red is grown organically.  Deeply coloured, it is mouth-filling and complex, with ripe, spicy, nutty flavours, supple, harmonious, layered and long.”

Gourmet Wine Traveller, June/July 2009
“An intense and complex Viognier with attractive barrel fermentation characters and oak influence giving it a remarkable Condrieu-like character. Silken textured with good mouth feel. Serious Viognier.”

"The scents are pure pinot - sweet and floral. The palate offers red and black berry fruit flavours, zesty acids and sweet earthy hints. Delicate and fine yet also firm and grounded. A pinot of real class. The Millton's have re-drawn New Zealand's Pinot Noir map." John Saker, March 2007
