"Intensely aromatic and inviting, the bouquet shows kiwifruit, crunchy apple and lemon zest aromas with a hint of watermelon. The palate is equally appealing with lively mouthfeel and persistency, offering delightful drinking. At its best: now to 2026" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jun 2024
"Delicate hues of pink and pale straw lead to a pungent and fruity bouquet of tropical fruits and citrus. The core of this wine are the flavours of tropical fruits and citrus with a fine seam of herbaceous-ness and wet stone. Sauvignon Blanc offers the dramatic level of acidity, is fresh and bright curbing just a little at its peak to highlight the core of fruit flavours. Black currant leaf, fruit spices, apple and citrus all lead wo a dry, balanced finish. Well made with best drinking from day of purchase through 2026" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Sep 2024
Utterly irresistible and playfully aromatic, this blush Sauvignon Blanc teases the nose with a blend of passionfruit, green apple, lemon, and hints of strawberries. On the palate, it’s a lively little number, with a zippy acidity and just a hint of sweetness, finishing light and refreshing, perfect for rooftop parties, solo dances, or relaxing with great food.
Misty Cove’s Estate Blush Sauvignon Blanc is a whimsical creation from our vineyards nestled in the upper Wairau Valley. The stony, ancient riverbed soils work their magic, giving birth to a wine that is both fun and fresh, perfectly capturing the unique essence of Marlborough’s environment.
This wine is a delightful blend of Sauvignon Blanc with a touch of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. All fruit was carefully harvested in the cool morning hours, gently pressed, and cool-fermented. Sauvignon Blanc was handled in stainless steel tanks, while Chardonnay and Pinot Noir fermented in older French oak barriques. After maturing separately, we blended these varietals to achieve a harmonious balance of fruity flavours, fresh mouthfeel, and alluring colour.
Food Pairing: Grilled shrimp will bring out the wine’s bright acidity and fruitiness, while a goat cheese salad enhances its crispness with creamy textures and tangy flavours. Its fresh, clean profile is a perfect match for sushi and sashimi. And for the ultimate snacking companion, this wine charms its way through a charcuterie board, taming rich meats and cheeses with its dry, refreshing charm.
