Immediately the nose reveals this to be a serious wine: very coherent with rapidly expanding boundaries bringing aromatic volume. The palate, too, has an escalating horizon and an inflating edge; it's simply delicious, with well-rounded tannins. Initially there is a juicy, plush elegance, with the tannins claiming a more authoritative and luxurious presence, showing off its class and flamboyance. The mid-palate brings the wine back to earth with grounding acidity that reigns the wine in again without overpowering the fruit weight.

There's an abundance of tannins, but they are as resolved as tannins get, lightly coating the palate. The fruit was picked a little earlier than usual due to the warmth of the season in a bid to preserve tension and also keep the alcohol level at a very reasonable 13%. The acidity provides freshness and precision, giving the wine length and shape. While the primary fruit is not front and center, on the finish it blossoms, offering cherries, cinnamon, and clove spice.

This was later sold off by the Seddon government and renamed Dyerville, leaving the renamed Waihora River (circa 1900) and the renamed Dyerville Rd (1994) - both after Dry River - as the only reminders of this part of our pastoral farming history. In 1979 Neil and Dawn McCallum planted a vineyard a few kilometers from Dyerville in a very dry, grave, and free-draining area now called the 'Martinborough Terrace' and they took the name Dry River for the vineyard and wines in what was to become another chapter of Martinborough's farming history. Their dream was to produce individual, high-quality regional wines which faithfully reflect the 'terroir', vintage, and are suitable for cellaring.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THIS BRAND - Dry River \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section-header\" _ngcontent-ejt-c68=\"\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 _ngcontent-ejt-c68=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"description\" _ngcontent-ejt-c68=\"\"\u003eIn the Wairarapa in 1979 Dry River quickly established a reputation as one of the finest producers in the country producing Riesling, Chardonnay, Gewürztraminer, Viognier, Syrah, and Pinot Noir.
