‘Rua’ Pinot Noir, Akarua
£21.50
The Skeggs family were among the first people to buy and plant vineyard land in Central Otago in the mid 1990s, so were lucky enough to acquire a superb north-facing site in Bannockburn.
‘Rua’ is Akarua’s ‘entry level’ Pinot Noir! Drinking perfectly now, this offers loads of Pinot quality for the price. Ripe and juicy and full of that rich Central Otago Pinot character. Early drinking maybe, and perhaps slightly less structured and complex than their top wine, this is none the less impressive stuff.
Delicious with BBQ, lamb chops, pork belly (Chinese spice), or game birds.

Highmoor whole cheese
A semi-soft, washed rind cheese with brothy and bacony notes from the rind made at the Nettlebed Creamery near Henley by Rose Grimmond. Rose's family are dairy farmers and the family farm, located 1 mile down the road, provides all the beautiful organic cows' milk used to make the Nettledbed cheeses. Shape, taste and texture all make Highmoor an interesting addition to any cheese board and given the closeness of the cow to creamery to No2 this is also a great cheese to eat to reduce your food miles and support two local businesses.
