The Urban Wine and Cider Limited is a Christchurch-based group of very good friends who decided to have a play in their shared wine passion as many of them moved towards retirement. They had acquired some equipment a couple of years ago, and with the input of one of the group who is a winemaker with many vintages in New Zealand and overseas, embarked on a new venture in life. They’ve chosen the virtual winery model of purchasing fruit and making the wine, their first in a Christchurch garage. Pinot Noir is their variety of choice as it is the variety that fits in with the perception of being exciting, innovative and fresh, with the brand name ‘Urban’. Here, I review the first wine, yet to be released. For availability enquiries, contact Graeme McGlinn on Cell: 021 746-243 or Email: [email protected]
