Gordon Ramsay's for Christmas

Home > Accolades > Gordon Ramsays for Xmas

Hatton Estate - A small family owned winery in Gimblett Road in Hawke’s Bay has scored a major coup just in time for Christmas.  
 
Gordon Ramsay’s eponymous 3 Michelin Star restaurant in London has just listed Hatton Estate’s ultra premium offering Tahi, vintage 1998 -a Cabernet dominant Bordeaux style red blend. 
 
“This puts New Zealand reds on the world stage, New Zealand is known for its Sauvignon Blanc but now we have a Cabernet based red that can stand up and be counted in the international arena.” Said co-owner Michael Daymond-King. ”It’s a great honour to be served at such a prestigious establishment, food and wine connoisseurs rave about the place.” 
 
Tahi is selling well in the UK considering that it retails at £39.00 (NZD 122.00) per bottle, and is on the wine list at Ramsay’s at £115.00 (NZD 360.00) per bottle.  
 
The Gordon Ramsay deal comes hot on the heels of Tahi listing at the Savoy Groups’ Simpson’s-in-the-Strand and in 24 of the City of London’s boardrooms along with Hatton Estates’ unoaked Chardonnay called EC2.  
 
“Our family has always enjoyed fine wine that goes well with food, managing the terroir of Gimblett Gravels and Hawkes Bay’s beautiful sunshine enable us to make our dream a reality” says John Rees, co-owner and Chief Viticulturalist. 
 
Hatton Estate Tahi 1998 is available at selected fine restaurants in New Zealand: Saggio di Vino Christchurch, Coptia Wellington, Tribeca in Parnell and White at The Hilton, Princes Wharf, Auckland. 
 
Hatton Estate retails at the following Fine Wine Merchants: Vino Fino Christchurch, Rumbles Wine Merchant Wellington, and Bay Wines of Herne Bay Auckland or via mail order on Michael@hattonestate.com  
 
EC2 is named after the City of London postcode where co owners Michael & Colleen Daymond-King worked for eight years to pay for their family's dream. " EC2 is a great wine with seafood or the healthy option on a menu and we are sure most of it will be consumed at lunch somewhere in the City!" comments Colleen Daymond-King ex-Channel Manager at FT.com. 
 
Hatton Estate Wines are available at selected fine restaurants in London, the Jeroboams Fine Wine Shops and direct from Coe Vintners Wine Merchants of London.
