"Classically expressed and immediately appealing, the wine shows passionfruit, rockmelon, apricot and citrus peel characters on the nose. It's succulent and bright, offering excellent fruit purity together with fine texture and refreshing acidity, making it super tasty and highly enjoyable" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2020

Vibrant aromas of passionfruit and flint combined with fragrant ripe grapefruit. Crisp and refreshing with zesty flavours of gooseberry, passionfruit, and grapefruit. A subtle herbal thread and salty minerality leads to a long, lingering finish. Perfect for drinking immediately, this Sauvignon Blanc will be at its best over the next two years.

Fruit was sourced from vineyards throughout Marlborough, predominantly in the lower Wairau sub-region. The fruit was carefully monitored throughout maturity and was harvested upon reaching optimum flavour development and ripeness. Transported to the winery with haste and pressed off with minimal skin contact, the resulting juice was cool fermented in stainless steel to retain freshness and varietal flavours.
