Description

Dry

• Dry style
• Passionfruit
• Orange blossom
• Sublime acidity

"It's intensely aromatic on the nose, showing passionfruit, green rockmelon, fig and lime peel aromas. The palate displays excellent weight and persistency, wonderfully complemented by juicy fruit flavours and refreshing acidity. Bright and upfront with loads of delicious flavours. At its best: now to 2027" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Sep 2023

The nose is expansive, complex and elegant. Guava, orange blossom and lime zest combine to give a lifted yet refined aromatic experience. The wine begins broadly in the palate, seeking all available tastebuds, and then expands further with notes of passionfruit, ripe pepper and candied lemon rind throughout the mouthfeel. Texturally the wine is full-boded with accompanied by sublime acidity that counterpoints the abundance of complex flavors. Superb on its own or with your own choice of cuisine.

Invivo X, SJP is a beautiful yet unique style of Sauvignon Blanc that is soft with a subtle oak influence. Late harvesting, a little bit of skin contact, some time in French barriques and hogsheads all contribute to its distinctive flavor profile and smooth mouth-feel. This highly acclaimed wine has been awarded 90+ points by Wine Spectator and James Suckling for its first four vintages.
