Need to know: Wine Gems
We've heard of whiskey rocks – but wine gems are still a relatively novel concept.
The innovators at Kim Crawford Wines have partnered with luxury home goods company Anna New York by Rababs, to create Kim Crawford Wine Gems – a stylish reimagining of the classic "whiskey stone" for wine.
Harnessing the natural beauty of fluorite stone, when frozen, these limited-edition wine gems act to keep a glass of Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc chilled for up to an hour, without diluting the wine’s vibrant flavours – or spoilling its complexities.
For a country the size of New Zealand, we tend to bat above our average in the wine industry with Kim Crawford Wines – fittingly dubbed New World Winery of the Year 2016 at the prestigious Wine Enthusiast awards – the perfect example of this.
