Cardrona The Source Chardonnay Barrel Aged Gin – Domaine Rewa

A single cask release of The Source Gin, matured in a buttery Domaine Rewa ex-Chardonnay cask from Central Otago, offering notes of chamomile, brioche, and white nectarine.

The Source Chardonnay Barrel Aged Gin – Domaine Rewa is a distinctive expression from Cardrona Distillery, showcasing the harmonious fusion of premium New Zealand botanicals and the refined influence of Chardonnay cask maturation. This single cask release is the result of a collaboration with Domaine Rewa, a biodynamic vineyard in Central Otago. The gin is mellowed in a buttery ex-Chardonnay cask crafted by The French Potter, imparting a luxurious depth and silky smoothness.

On the nose, it reveals aromas of chamomile and brioche, while the palate offers a rich, velvety texture with layers of white nectarine that open with dilution. Bottled at 47% ABV, this gin is perfect for sipping neat, over ice, or as the base for elevated cocktails. Stir with Dolin vermouth and add a lemon twist for an exquisite Source martini.
