Vinification Details

The wine is fermented in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks. The wine is vinified at a low temperature so to help retain the zingy lemon and lime flavours of this Sauvignon Blanc. This vintage has been carefully crafted by the winemaker Jason Cook.

History

The winery was founded in 2004 and based in Marlborough, it claims to currently process in excess of 15% of all wine grapes in New Zealand. On site, they have an experienced team of fully qualified winemakers, as well as cellar & laboratory staff. They all work together with dedicated personal client winemakers to help ensure that each vintage produces wine to the exact specification of each client.

Regional Information

Marlborough can lay claim to starting the modern New Zealand wine industry. Here in the late 1970s, Marlborough produced Sauvignon Blanc, among other varieties, which led to confidence that New Zealand could produce interesting wine. In 2011, the Marlborough wine region represented 62% of total vineyard area in the country.

Love this wine!

5 stars

Love this wine, it goes so well with many dishes as well as being a lovely to drink on it's own.

Better choices available

2 stars

Unpleasantly acidic throughout. Citric overpowers any subtlety. Far, far better value from the much superior fraternally-branded Pinot Grigio. Avoid.

Simply the best!

5 stars

Simply the best. Your search for a sublime Sauvignon Blanc is over. We hardly ever buy anything else now!

Transforming experience

2 stars

Strangest tasting wine ever. No words to describe it. I would say it’s fruity but it’s also also weirdly savory. Go for it if you’re incredibly bored but if you want a good wine avoid.

Magical wine:)

5 stars

Excellent white wine for price

Excellent white wine for price

Not as good as in previous years

3 stars

Every wine has good and bad vintages. Although the two of us have loved this wine in the past, we found that, drinking it again after a pause of a year or two, it just wasn't as good as it used to be. It was pleasant enough but seemed to have lost some of its "zing" and the complexity of flavour that it (along with the best Sauvignon Blancs) used to have.
