Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc

2025

Sunshine in a glass – with Marlborough swagger. Tropical, fresh and just a little bit softer around the edges.

Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc

Tasting Notes

Sweet and inviting aromas with notes of lantana, passionfruit and grapefruit. Very pungent. This is followed by mandarin, slate and nettles.

Blackcurrant and fruit salad explodes onto the palate in a finely texture rush - this is sustained and joined by green tropical notes and citrus. Mineral and spice linger of the finish with a dash of lime zest. Fresh and juicy.

Winemaker Notes

Grapes predominately our own estates were picked, crushed and pressed. The juice was fermented in stainless steel tanks at various temperatures to capture the fresh flavours unique to Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. After extensive tastings by the winemakers the wine was assembled, lightly fined and bottled.

Food Pairing

Exceptional partner to seafood - especially oysters!
