Reviews & Accolades
MUNDUS VINI Spring Tasting 2023: Gold.
Cameron Douglas MS: 94/100. Lovely, pure white fleshed fruit bouquet laced with a cool, wet stone mineral quality and aromas of Meyer lemon and tropical fruits, then fresh sage and basil herbs. The palate reflects the bouquet with ripe, white fleshed fruit flavours, herbs and tropical fruit highlights. Vibrant, fresh, salivating and dry on the finish. Best drinking from 2023 through 2027.
Bob Campbell, MW (The Real Review): 93/100 & Top Value. Attractively scented wine with a medley of passionfruit, pineapple, guava, capsicum and lemongrass flavours supported by a backbone of ripe acidity that builds a little punchy tension. Drink: 2022-2026
Tasting Note
The 2022 Estate Sauvignon Blanc is bursting with lemon, passionfruit and ripe tropical fruit, tied together with layers of fresh, green, herbaceous characters. The palate has lovely fruit concentration, balanced acidity and a gentle, dry finish.

Wine region: Marlborough, New Zealand. This wine comes from two vineyards, a nearly equal split between our Awatere and Waihopai Valley blocks. Growing on only two or three canes keeps our crop levels low which ensures beautiful selection of weight and flavour concentration.
Winemaking: With rain in February, warm weather and early development of flavour, we picked at a slightly lower brix this year. Each block was picked when they reached maximum passionfruit characters and while the acidity was bright and crisp. The grapes were gently pressed before being fermented in stainless steel tanks with selected cultured yeast, while 4% was fermented with wild yeast in old French barriques.
Residual sugar: 3 g/l
Bottle size: 0.75l
Vegan: yes
Notice: contains sulphites
Cellaring potential: 2025. Delicious now but will continue to develop in bottle, highlighting the minerality of this wine. A bit of cellaring will also allow the wine to mellow and soften for a rounder mouthfeel.
