Description

  • Dry style
  • Lychee & melon
  • Pineapple & passionfruit
  • Fresh & vibrant

"It's beautifully aromatic on the nose, showing green rockmelon, Gala apple and lemon zest characters, leading to a splendidly flavoursome palate offering bright fruit flavours with refreshing acidity, making it fabulously appealing" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jun 2024

If you are looking for adventure and discovery, stop what you are doing and try this wine. The 2023 Shellback Sauvignon Blanc was crafted to embody those with a taste for freedom. Displaying fresh and vibrant aromas of lychee, melon and passionfruit, this new release Sauvignon Blanc exhibits unforgettable flavours of pineapple and fresh lime on the finish.

The fruit for this wine was sourced from the Marlborough region. Specially selected parcels of fruit were harvested and transported immediately to the winery where the grapes were swiftly fermented in cool stainless-steel tanks. The resulting wine was tasted, blended, and prepared for final bottling by the end of June 2023.

Food Pairing: The flavor profile of this Sauvignon Blanc is one that matches beautifully with seafood and shellfish. So, sit back and enjoy the spoils of the Shellback's hard graft, and raise a glass to the people out there who dare to try new things.
