Its Origins

Boneline are a Waipara operation with a serious focus on terroir. Waipara’s lime-rich soils and nearly identical climate to Chablis allow Boneline to explore stylistic bridge points between the more restrained French and more brightly fruited characteristics of New Zealand terroir wines. The name Boneline itself invokes a network of ideas linking their wines and terroir to the primordial history of the site, directly referring to fossilised fish bones that have been found around the Waipara River - which also appear on their labels - and indirectly referring to the lime in the soil, itself a residue of fish calcium that forms the various bone-like substrata of many Waipara vineyards and makes the region such a special place for wine. Bringing to their work a broad range of human and marketing as well as winemaking talents, Boneline look set to define new possibilities for their exceptional place and its offerings.

What The Critics Say

93/100 Cameron Douglas MS

"A striking appearance of dark salmon oil and hints of red lead to a powerful bouquet of apricot, red apple skin and roses with a saffron note. Dry, fruity, smooth and delicious, a wine with plenty of mouthfeel and contrasting textures, core fruit flavours that reflect the bouquet and a lengthy dry-ish raspberry flesh finish. Delicious on its own or with light weight proteins through summer 2023."

Winemaker notes

Pale pink and rose gold. Delicate notes of wild strawberries, crushed redcurrants, freshly sliced watermelon with underlying citrus and hits of passionfruit seed. On the palate we find fresh red berries followed by ripe melon and subtle peach, the mid palate is creamy, textural and juicy - balanced by a delicate grapefruit and mineral combination providing a cleansing dry finish which lingers well after the wine is gone.
