  Fairhall Downs    
     
Fairhall Downs Family Estate is a family owned and operated Marlborough wine company, proudly specialising in premium, single vineyard wines. A market leader epitomising the "small is beautiful" philosophy, Ken and Jill Small planted the first vines on Fairhall River Valley land in 1982. They had abandoned the long, cold winters on a Southland sheep and crop farm to find new opportunities in sunny Marlborough. Soon they decided to make their own wine and the first bottle of Fairhall Downs Sauvignon Blanc was produced in 1996.
         
       
Pinot Noir

Enticing complexity, underpinned by a core of ripe blueberry and black cherry fruit. The palate is multi- layered with a velvet texture, fresh mineral acidity, fine tannins and excellent length of flavour. This wine is great drinking now and has great ageing potential.
         
       
Sauvignon Blanc

By picking our various parcels over a range of ripeness's we aim to achieve a complex wine showing a blend of citric and tropical characters. This wine can be enjoyed in its youth, but will intensify with 2 to 3 years of careful cellaring.
         
       
Pinot Gris

A dry but rich style, with complex characters coming from the vineyard site and traditional winemaking techniques. It can be enjoyed in its youth, but will intensify with 5 to 10 years of careful cellaring.
         
       
Chardonnay

The result is a wine with decadent texture, underpinned by a core of delicate and fine citrus, with a hint of nectarine, and a crisp mineral acidity. It can be enjoyed in its youth, but will intensify with careful cellaring.
