Tasting Notes
- This is filled with gorgeous passionfruit, nectarine and lime zest flavours. It is intense, and delivers loads of tasty flavours backed by juicy acidity. A hugely appealing sauvignon with varietal purity and power, finishes superbly long and refreshing.

Vinification Details
- This year, though, top talk show host Graham Norton and Kiwi winemakers Invivo headed to Graham's own back yard to work their winemaking magic: Bantry House in County Cork, Ireland. Invivo cofounders Tim Lightbourne and winemaker Rob Cameron travelled over 20,000 kilometres to Norton's summer location complete with their precious cargo of six distinctive Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc pressings. Then, over a reportedly riotous afternoon blending session the trio created Graham's 2016 Sauvignon Blanc.
History
- Invivo wines was founded in 2008 by old school friends Tim Lightbourne (ex Heinz and Garnier senior marketer) and Rob Cameron (ex Villa Maria winemaker). Invivo is a premium brand and has received numerous accolades in international wine competitions, including 115 medals, 18 golds and 4 trophies. We were also included as one of Deloitte's Fast 50 New Zealand Companies in 2012. Graham is a huge Invivo fan who has supplied wine to his show since 2011. Graham is now even a part owner of the winery.
