Description

Dry

• Dry style
• Gooseberry
• Subtle sea salt
• Rich & lively

"Pristine and bright, the fragrant bouquet shows green rockmelon, grapefruit, fig and crunchy apple aromas. The palate is splendidly attractive with lively mouthfeel and juicy fruit intensity, well supported by fine texture and crisp acidity, finishing long and tasty. At its best: now to 2024" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jun 2023

A terrific example of classic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc displaying fresh lifted notes of tropical fruits with a hint of sea salt. Luscious and gently textured with flavours of gooseberry and kiwifruit with an elegant mineral note. The palate is intensely concentrated, rich and lively with an elegant and full bodied finish. At its best over the next three years but it will be hard to resist drinking this delicious drop immediately.

Grapes for this wine were carefully harvested when they reached their optimum ripeness. They were pressed off their skins quickly with minimum contact so as to preserve fresh flavours.

Food Pairing: Perfectly matched with freshly caught snapper and Greek salad.
