Winemaker Notes
Crisp and aromatic with notes of luscious grapefruit, gooseberries, freshly cut grass, and ripe tropical fruit. The wine has a bright and fresh entry followed by balanced fruit and acidity for a clean mineral finish.

This is release 11 with plenty of sliced pear and celery stick character. Some white pepper and peach, too. Medium to full body. Plenty of grape skin fruit at the end. Pineapple, too. Drink now.
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.
