Testify’ is a wine that is only produced in the best of vintages.

In Appearance: Pale straw hue.

On the Nose: a harmony of white nectarine and the oak-influenced aromas of miso caramel and charred pineapple

On the Palate: The palate is ripe and rich with a brilliantly resolved acidity that sparkles like the crunch of a flaky salt crystal. The fruit is ever-present with layers of nectarine, pineapple, stewed Granny Smith apples, and the smoky oak wafting through. A chardonnay for the ages.

Bob Campbell MW: 91 Points
Made from grapes grown in the coastal subregion of Te Awanga. Rich, weighty chardonnay with a curious gunpowder pepperiness adding an extra dimension to grapefruit, citrus, green apple, oyster-shell and spicy oak flavours.New Zealand International Wine Show

Decibel Wines

Decibel was founded in 2009 by Daniel Brennan, a former rock band manager who has since become a bit of a rockstar himself in the local wine industry. He moved Hawke’s Bay in 2008, with infinite passion to learn about wine growing and this unique region. Dan honed his craft, made deep connections with local growers, and turned his initials (the musical symbol for decibel) into a beloved wine label.

Today, there are around 17 varieties available across the three wine ranges: Decibel, Giunta and Testify, featuring the iconic Martinborough Pinot Noir and Malbec, as well as a refined Chenin Blanc and zesty Sauvignon Blanc. The team is dedicated to producing wines from sustainable sites, working with many fully organic growers while inspiring others to make the switch.
