- A deliciously crisp and vibrant Sauvignon Blanc with lifted aromas of exotic fruits, fresh passionfruit and characteristic blackberry leaf, through to a refreshing, zesty finish. It is a clear, bright wine with lifted aromas of apricot kernel, gooseberry, and sweet grapefruit. The vibrant palate delivers crisp citrus flavours supported by blackcurrant and soft tropical notes through to a lovely, fresh finish.
- Awards
Platinum Award, DWWA, 2023
The fruit was harvested in the cool night to retain the vibrant aromas and fruity flavours. The grapes were gently pressed with minimal skin contact before being fermented under temperature-controlled, cool conditions. The clear juice was fermented in stainless steel tanks with selected yeasts to preserve the purity of the fruit and encourage maximum thiol characters. Thiols are the compounds naturally found on the Sauvignon Blanc grapes and are responsible for Marlborough’s signature tropical notes.
It is a clear, bright wine with lifted aromas of exotic fruits and blackcurrant leaves. The vibrant palate is deliciously crisp, juicy, and textured, layered with mineral notes to create a refreshing, zesty finish.

| Winery | The fruit for this wine is sourced from selected vineyards in Marlborough central Wairau Valley, predominantly from the fertile Dillon's Point sub-region. The eastern floodplain soils are nutrient-rich silty loam, renowned for delivering Marlborough's iconic tropical-flavoured Sauvignon Blanc. To capture the maximum expression of regional characteristics, the pruning, irrigation and canopy management are dictated by each variety and each unique block of land. |
