The epitome of the Marlborough but benefiting from the estate's old vines and the soils on the south-western corner of our estate, our Sauvignon Blanc ascends with lush aromatics of fresh tropical green fruit, grapefruit and gooseberry, balanced by a refreshing structural flinty minerality and creamy textured finish. Drinks beautifully young but also develops intriguing characters with age.

Shows hints of beeswax and spiced poached pear, which add complexity to the core of citrus and fresh herbal notes on a smooth, juicy frame, while lemon blossom accents linger. Drink now. 50,000 cases made, 3,000 cases imported.

Pungent onion and dried herb aromas are at the fore.The grassy, passionfruit and citrus notes are tucked beneath, though, with aeration in glass they become more prominent. The palate is dry with bright, tingly acidity and a lengthy limey finish. Fresh, fruity and with some textural weight to hold up to a range of spring and summer dishes.
