New Zealand’s Marlborough is the hottest ticket out for vibrant Sauvignon Blanc. Customers don’t seem to be able to get enough. So we’ve searched out another class act. First release is the 2017 – a year that had its challenges: wind, rain and earthquakes! But the small crop was perfect, with a ravishing range of flavours. The style this year is marked by lovely fruit ripeness balanced by leafy freshness. In this wine you’ll notice a lifted floral aroma with bright stone fruits, a hint of guava and a bright mineral quality – a touch more delicate than some. It’s made by one of the founding fathers – 30 plus years ago – of the Marlborough wine fraternity. Chill the wine down and enjoy as a glass on its own or with salmon or a spicy stir-fry.
