Its Origins
Winemaker's info: "The m.a.u in m.a.u. wines stand for Marc Alexander Udy. After almost 20 years making wines in New Zealand, Australia and Burgundy I started my own brand, with the 2021 harvest. We are a very small, family-owned winery located in Clevedon, Auckland. We run an 2ha organic vineyard planted predominantly in Merlot with smaller plantings of Malbec and Cab Franc. Off this vineyard we make a rose and Bordeaux Field Blend. We also bring to our Auckland winery small parcels of incredible Chardonnay and Pinot Noir off the highly regarded Cowley Vineyard, situated on Marlborough’s Southern Clays."
What The Critics Say
94/100 Raymond Chan Reviews, Candice Chan
"Bright, even, pale coral. The nose is gently full with depth and elegance, penetrating with aromas of red berries, plums, blood orange, rose petals and savoury nuances. Medium-bodied, aromas of plums and red berries are concentrated, melded with rose petals, blood orange spice and a savoury, meaty quality. The fruit displays multilayers of flavour and depth; spices linger with rose petals to a long, crisp finish. Match with bresaola and beef carpaccio over the next 2-3 years. A blend of Merlot, Malbec and Cabernet Franc, fermented to 12.4% alc. 18.5+/20 pts (94 pts) Apr 2024." Drink 2024 - 2027
