Tasting Notes

The nose is vibrant with zesty fruit aromas of peach, nectarine, and passion fruit, along with notes of lemon zest, kiwi, and granny apple. This quintessentially zesty Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is incredibly lively on the palate, with citrus notes and a generous layering of mouth-watering fruit flavors and herbaceous hints.

Critical Acclaim:

"Appealing aromas of lime, white peach and kiwi fruit lead to a palate that's shows lovely, delicate fruit woven neatly with bright acidity, and padded by a softly pithy texture. It steers clear of the green, underripe pungency common to this style and is the better (half) for it." 90 points, Christina Pickard, Wine Enthusiast

Pairing Block

Food Pairing

New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc will taste amazing alongside a variety of fresh dishes that incorporate citrus-forward sauces and herbs. Think salads, light chicken preparations, crab, lobster, white fish like halibut and cod, oysters, calamari, ceviche, smoked salmon, and even fresh goats milk cheese and salad or a goat cheese tart.
