    Who’s this mystery man with the trendy beard and bowler hat? It’s Andrew Bailey, the winemaker and founder of Misty Cove wines.

    Andrew and his whanau run every little aspect of Misty Cove wines down in Marlborough. From the winemaking and vineyard work, to sales and marketing. A true 100% family owned and operated Kiwi wine business if we ever saw one!

    The Founder is Misty’s new little project and this is their exciting debut release. Awarded 4 1/2 stars (91/100) by Wine Orbit’s Sam Kim, who said “juicy and vibrant on the palate, and offers terrific fruit intensity backed by bright acidity…instantly likeable.”

    Their 2016 Marlborough Sauvy is a mouth wateringly, fresh and juicy style. Best enjoyed with fresh fish and seafood – or how about busting it out with classic Kiwi fush ‘n’ chups?
