Description

One of the only true "cult" wines from New Zealand - Protected in secrecy by its owner and revered even by those that place Mount Mary Quintet above all else, Providence Matakana makes the very short list of tertiary cerebral wines from the New World that aim to be on par with 1970's era Diamond Creek. If you are an explorer of the unknown and demand the rarest examples in the world, this is for you.

Inspired by Cheval Blanc with a firm purpose, the goal of this wine is simple enough: to be the very best red wine in the world (seriously, the very best - not just the best from New Zealand - while that is a little far fetched, I do like a proprietor with confidence). Grown in a shroud of seclusion in the bizarre Northland appellation, 80-100kms north of Auckland (near the sub-tropical far tip of the North Island - nearly at the same latitude as Sydney), Providence winery began in 1990.

Vinified with the best intentions from a very small, hand-tended vineyard that is raised organically - the wine sees no additions or subtractions and no cultured yeasts or enzymes. The vines are grown in a deposit of very high mineral and elemental composition that reflect the volcanic and ocean heritage of this island. Only the natural yeast of the vineyard and winery begin the process and elevage can be slow. Fermented in open-top wood and kept for a minimum of 2-3 years in barrel and bottle before release, Matakana has an exceptional track record for ageing and early 1990's vintages are still going strong
