Crafted in Wellington by Victor Gin, this seasonal release is inspired by Blanc de Blancs sparkling wine—elegant, bright, and refined. Using a traditional copper pot still, the distillers layer botanicals such as juniper, citrus zest, chamomile, white grape, and green apple to evoke the crisp, lifted profile of méthode traditionnelle bubbles. Delicate and expressive, this gin offers a unique New Zealand take on luxury and celebration.
Bouquet Fresh and aromatic with notes of lemon blossom, green apple, white florals, and a subtle hint of brioche and grape skin.
Palate Clean, zesty, and beautifully textured. Classic juniper underpins a bright medley of citrus, white stone fruit, and delicate floral tones. A soft, slightly creamy finish recalls sparkling wine—with gentle minerality and a refreshing lift.
Food Pairing Serve with a splash of dry tonic or soda and a twist of lemon or cucumber. Perfect with oysters, soft cheeses, or sushi. Also shines in sparkling gin cocktails like a French 75 or topped with Prosecco for a celebratory spritz.
Cellaring Best enjoyed young to preserve its fresh, vibrant character. Once opened, use within 1–2 years for peak flavour.
Interesting Fact This seasonal gin is designed to taste like a Blanc de Blancs Champagne—using botanicals instead of grapes to recreate its elegance and finesse. A true celebration in a glass, made for special moments and sunny toasts.
