Vibrant and punchy aromas of passionfruit and citrus lead the way with delicate herbaceous notes. A lively palate driven by tropical fruits, citrus zest \u0026amp; juicy green apple leads to a moreish acidity \u0026amp; a long, lively finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur 2024 Sauvignon Blanc is comprised of fruit from our Wairau and Awatere Valley vineyards.

Originally from Latvia, his thick accent earned him the nickname ‘Russian Jack’ when he arrived in New Zealand in 1912. He spent most of his life travelling thecountry on foot picking fruit, clearing scrub and befriending locals. He was honoured with a bronze statue after his death in 1968. Russian Jack wines are an ode to the hard work of ‘swaggers’ like him who we have to thank for some of our great vineyards today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFood Pairing: Try with mussel fritters or fresh seafood.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Foley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49853247717693,"sku":"RJSB24ANH1E","price":89.94,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/9211\/5773\/files\/25777-1.jpg?v=1738109967","url":"https:\/\/www.blackmarket.co.nz\/products\/russian-jack-marlborough-sauvignon-blanc-2024","provider":"Black Market","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
