    The Dusky Sounds. It’s one of Fiordland’s largest fiords, a breeding playground for Fiordland Penguins, where Maori hunted Moa before Europeans arrived on the scene, where they reckon NZ’s first beer was brewed by Captain Cook and crew. It’s a great spot for a boat cruise or (if you’re fit enough) paddling a kayak around for a few days. There’s now even a wine label named after it. Dusky Sounds Riesling

    Made by the gang that produce the Waipara Hills wines. This is that delicious medium sweet style, soft and citrusy and oh so drinkable.

    It’s the ideal midweek tipple to go with your Thai, Indian or Chinese takeout. Or how about throwing a few slices of fish under the grill? Mmm!

    The Lowdown: 12.5% alc / 750ml / Screwcap
