A classic representation of Sauvignon Blanc from the Wairau Valley in Marlborough, bursting with tropical fruit characters found in this warmer subregion. This wine displays powerful aromas of blackcurrant and passionfruit. The palate has an enticing array of ripe citrus fruits mixed with pungent herbs such as fresh rosemary, finishing with subtle acidity.

Double Gold [GFW23]

2023 Global Fine Wine Challenge

95 | Bold with strong fruit accented by nettles and lime zest. Strong vein of acidity.

96 | Passionfruit soft drink aromas; intense juicy sweet fruit, vibrant and bouncy, this has some sweetness but also brillliant acidity and vitality that keeps it all airborne. Lovely wine.

94 | Super bright. Crisp, green apple and pear. A pretty wine, not the most ostentatious but lovely delicate flavours

91 | softly herbal and fresh, the crisp SB grows on me, nice textural mouthfeel and zesty acidity to make this last a while, nicely done.
