Ooh yes, go! We're mainly famous for our whites (particularly Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay &, more recently, Pinot Gris), but we have some pretty good Pinot Noirs too. Look for Pinot Noir from the Otago region, and whites from Marlborough & Martinborough (a cool little wine area about an hour from where I live). If you go, let me know what you think....

Now they probably didn't de-stem, hoping for some semblance of concentration, crushed it up with leaves and mice, and then wound up with this rancid tar and turpentine bull**. Fin' Raid. Jack: Tastes pretty good to me.
