Winemaker Notes
Pale straw with a green hue. White blossom and citrus aromas leap from the glass with hints of white peach and passionfruit. The aromas echo on the palate where they are matched with a lively acidity, fresh minerality, and a mouthwatering texture.
Pairs well with fresh seafood, such as ceviche and oysters, Asian-inspired cuisine, soft cheeses and green salads.
Recognized for its distinctively herbaceous and aromatic, Sauvignon Blanc, New Zealand is perfectly suited to the grape with its maritime climate, plenty of rainfall and abundant sunshine. Producers have almost unilaterally embraced cutting-edge winery technology, resulting in clean, high-quality wines at every price point from wallet-friendly to premium. Sauvignon blanc is at its best in Marlborough but thrives throughout as the country. It is New Zealand’s most planted and successful variety, also accounting for an overwhelming majority of its exports.
