Sauvignon Blanc is sourced from multiple vineyards in Marlborough, New Zealand from both the Wairau and Awatere Valleys. Texture and complexity comes from components of late harvest fruit, a touch of skin contact and partial use of French oak barriques and hogsheads. Part of the wine also undergoes malolactic fermentation. The nose is expansive, complex and elegant. Guava, orange blossom and lime zest combine to give a lifted yet refined aromatic experience. The wine begins broadly in the palate, seeking all available tastebuds, and then expands further with notes of passionfruit, ripe pepper and candied lemon rind throughout the mouthfeel. Texturally, the wine is full-bodied, accompanied by sublime acidity that counterpoints the abundance of complex flavors. Superb on its own or with your choice of cuisine.
