Misty Cove Marlborough Northbank Sauvignon Blanc 2018

Description

Dry

"Beautifully fruited and inviting, the bouquet shows nectarine, feijoa, green rockmelon and lime zest characters, followed by a mouth-wateringly tasty palate that is filled with gorgeous flavours. The wine offers lovely purity and lively mouthfeel, finishing long and delicious. At its best: now to 2021" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2019

The bouquet from this vintage displays feijoa, green rockmelon, lime zest and subtle herbaceous characters. The palate delivers superb fruit intensity and vibrancy, beautifully supported by fine texture and bright acidity. Excellent concentration provides a lengthy and persistent finish in our distinctive Northbank Sauvignon Blanc.

Made with style and old world making techniques, this hand crafted wine is best enjoyed with family & friends. 

The fruit was hand harvested from our Northbank Vineyard, fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel tanks after gentle pressing. We have used the best strains of yeast most suited to the distinctive aromatics of Marlborough Sauvignon. Lees aging for 6 months prior to bottling has developed mid-palate weight adding to the wine’s intense fruit characters.

Food Pairing: Best enjoyed with a wide range of dishes including shrimp, scallops, mussels, clams, fish, chicken, asparagus, salads or feta.
