Description
Blackcurrant, Dry, Floral
"Bubbling with white peach, nettle, guava and lychee perfume with an undercurrent of fresh herbs. Assertive and persistent with a vibrant backbone of lemon acidity" Decanter World Wine Awards 2025
Perfumed and lifted. Notes of mandarin and spice with blackcurrant, honeydew melon and apple. Mineral notes. Soft lime entry soon joined by riper citrus and florals. Apple & green kiwifruit and sweet spice lingers. Lively and expressive with a medium light weight and a fine texture. Layers of fruit distributed across the entire palate.
A classic Sauvignon Blanc with all the hallmark characteristics of Marlborough. Produced in a fuller, riper, and softer style that develops well, this wine is clean, fresh and tropical, with fruit harvested from several vineyards situated throughout Marlborough.
Inoculated with Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Torulaspora delbrueckii, Kluyveromyces thermotolerans and Lachancea thermotolerans for added complexity of flavour and mouthfeel. Temperature range 14-18C.
Food Pairing: Seafood - especially oysters!
