The Vitis Cellars ‘Top Ten’ offers a hassle-free way of a guaranteed wine experience each month. This is simply the ultimate in quality and value. The Vitis Top Ten is uncompromised by who the winery or distributor is, or what the cheapest deal is. For those who are not too sure where to start their wine experience, the Top Ten is their ‘beacon of light’ with ‘blindingly’ great prices!

Let’s start with a Cloudy Bay Pelorus NV from Marlborough. This wine has serious class and elegance, another great ‘sparkler’ from Cloudy Bay at the ridiculous price of $28.50. Next up is a Sacred Hill Halo Pinot Gris 2011, also from Marlborough. The Halo team, led by Tony Bish gives a gorgeous Gris experience, delighting the senses with its elegance, depth and definition, a wine for all seasons at only $18.90 a bottle. Great chardonnays come from the Marlborough region and this La Strada Chardonnay 2008 is no exception. This chardonnay has been in the barrel for 16 months and has intense concentrated flavours with well integrated French oak characters from that extended time in the wood. Experience this wine at only $27.50 per bottle.

Here is a versatile ‘Girl Friday’ Pinot, ready at a moment’s notice! This is a Misha’s Vineyard Impromptu Pinot Noir 2010 from Central Otago with a very smooth taste which makes it extremely drinkable at the crazy price of $27 per bottle.  The Wild South 2012 Pinot Gris takes you on a wild experience at a wild price. The Wild South Pinot Gris is selling in the Top Ten for just $14 per bottle.

Summertime in a glass! Even in the depths of winter, you will find yourself with lingering memories of summer with a glass of the Ti Point Ruby Rose 2011. This is a handcrafted rose by Tracy Haslam and her family from 100% merlot grapes, lovingly nurtured from the beautiful Ti Point vineyard on the Matakana Coast in Northland. With intense aromas of strawberry and orange blossom, sample this wine at only $17 a bottle.

If you ever wondered what Central Otago would taste like in a bottle, look no further and experience Carrick’s pristine Riesling 2011, fully certified organic at $19.90 a bottle and from Nelson comes the Greenhough Sauvignon Blanc 2011, a potential classic at $19.  Again from Central Otago comes the famed Two Paddocks Picnic Pinot Noir 2010, an affordable and utterly delicious Central Pinot.
Finally, the Top Ten announces the double silver medal winner Leopardi Estate Chardonnay 2009 from Waipara in the lower North Island coming in at just $25.
