Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is renowned for its bold character, but our interpretation of this timeless favorite offers more than meets the eye. Beneath its initial intensity lies a nuanced complexity. We've incorporated ripe Wairau Valley fruit, a hint of skin fermentation, and a brief maturation in oak and acacia barrels, introducing additional layers of flavor and texture. This wine holds its secrets, revealing its true essence gradually rather than all at once upon the first sip.
