Description

93pts... The palate delivers plenty of power, nicely supported by lush fruit flavours, finishing superbly long and juicy.

"Richly fruited and intensely flavoured, this is a fabulously good drinking sauvignon filled with passionfruit, peach and feijoa characters with a hint of herbaceous lift. The palate delivers plenty of power, nicely supported by lush fruit flavours, finishing superbly long and juicy. At its best: now to 2018." Sam Kim, Wine Orbit.

Tropical aromas accentuate the bouquet of this gold Sauvignon Blanc. Grapefruit, guava, passionfruit, and lemongrass dance across the palate in perfect symmetry bringing a refreshing, crisp acidity to life.

Marlborough is a special place for wine. Perhaps it’s our cloudless skies or mild temperatures or well-drained soils. It could be our long growing season or our sustainably-farmed vineyards. Whatever the reason, the result is wines that are marked by piercingly vibrant fruit flavours and lively acidity.

We have been tending vineyards and making wine in Marlborough for over twenty years. Our home is important to us, and we see our role as a caretaker of this part of the world. We strive to minimize or eliminate any activities that are wasteful or harmful to the environment so that future generations can continue to enjoy our extraordinary landscape.

With every step of the winemaking process our goal is to preserve the incredible aromatics and scintillating structure of our wines. After harvesting, we keep the fruit as cool as possible to retain bright, fresh Marlborough fruit flavours. Gentle crushing and cold fermentations help to preserve the personality of the variety and the influence of the site. Our Sauvignon Blanc is kept in stainless steel tanks to maintain zesty fruit characteristics.
