"Beautifully styled and engaging, the bouquet shows apricot, lemon peel, nougat and roasted cashew characters, leading to a gorgeously flavoursome palate offering fleshy texture and silky mouthfeel. Harmonious and satisfying with layers of attractive fruit flavours combined with an elegant oak infusion" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2021
"Brilliant, pale yellow-gold with some depth, even colour throughout. The nose is welcoming, greeted with nuances of ripe stonefruit, custard, toasted almonds and subtle flint. Medium-bodied, stonefruit entwined with nashi pear crispness, along with delicate spice, toasted almonds and custard lingers with a hint of citrus zest. The mouthfeel is smooth-flowing with a sense of crunch and chalky mineral, poised in structure. Flavours are just ripe with a good amount of freshness; well-proportioned and elegant use of oak adorn the wine with richness and weight. This is an elegantly crafted Chardonnay with the purity of fruit and poised structure of richness. Match with salmon and kingfish over the next 5 years" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Wine Reviews, Mar 2021
"A new label from Soho. Fresh and gently tangy chardonnay with ripe apple, juicy peach, stone fruit and hazelnut flavours. An attractive wine from a top vintage, with a mouth-watering backbone of fruity acidity" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Mar 2021
Mouth filling gorgeous flavours of white & yellow stonefruits entwined with an amalgam of creamy toasted nuts, oak and flint. Beautifully balanced with layers of lacy acidity providing energy & delivering a long sustained finish. An amphitheatre of charm & distinction where everyone loves to love her.
Marlborough’s consistent unrushed growing season, long bright summer days, temperate Pacific breeze & cool nights preserve the bright fruit characters, which result in the ability to produce crisp, zesty whites & suave, mouth-filling cool climate reds. Varietals: Sauvignon Blanc (principle), Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, Riesling & Rosé.
SOHO utilises both the Wairau & Awatere districts. Within these sub regions are a varying complex array of micro climates & soils creating pure, taut & focused wines.
SOHO’s Jomara & Yarrum vineyards are located on the Southern side of the Wairau Valley. Vines are planted on free draining silty clay loams, whites are on the flats (citrus & grapefruit characters) & reds on closely planted hill slopes (cherry, plum & earthy characters).
