Winemaker Notes
This lovely Sauvignon Blanc exhibits bright orange blossom and honey crisp apple characters. The full flavors coat the mouth with grapefruit, lemon, and creamy pear, ending in a long lean finish.
Pair this light bodied wine with lighter bodied dishes, use the acid to cut through heavier, cream based sauces, or enjoy with fresh local seafood like oysters or ceviche.
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.
