Description
"Pristine and elegantly fragrant, showing raspberry, crunchy apple, kiwifruit and lime zest aromas, followed by a lively palate that's light and refreshing. Delightfully charming and immediately appealing" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
"There’s no mistaking the power and punch of this variety with aromas of tropical fruits and lemon, some grapefruit and fresh herbs. Flavours on the palate reflect this with a backbone of acidity adding crunch and freshness. Apples and tropical fruit tea flavours complete the taste nicely. Balanced and well made with best drinking from 2024 through 2026" Cameron Douglas, Master sommelier, Apr 2024
A ‘lighter’ way to enjoy the intensity and flavours of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. Pale green. Fresh aromas of blackcurrant, green capsicum and lifted apple blossom. A crisp and refreshing palate bursting with herbaceous flavours of ripe greens, currant and nettle. This wine is ‘lighter’ in alcohol than the standard equivalent, with no compromise on tropical flavour intensity or complexity. Perfect for drinking immediately or over the next three years.
The fruit was sourced from selected vineyard sites located in Marlborough’s Wairau Valley. Grapes were harvested at optimum flavour intensity before the sugar levels became too high. This allowed the production of a wine lower in alcohol but rich in flavour. The grapes were machine harvested at cool temperatures and processed immediately to minimise skin contact. The juice was cool fermented in stainless steel to retain varietal character and freshness. Fermentation was stopped to retain some residual sugar in order to give the wine palate weight.
Food Pairing: An ideal lunch time wine or aperitif. A perfect match for seafood or a fresh summer salad.
