Atiru Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc
This Marlborough drop is sourced from a single vineyard in the Awatere region. Its balance of citrus aromas and Granny Smith apple flavours, make it easy to pair with foods such as shellfish, asparagus or margherita pizza. Delish!
Seresin Sauvignon Blanc
Amongst the sea of quality Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc that is flooding Australia, Seresin Sauvignon Blanc stands out as having that something extra: perhaps it is the wild yeast ferment; perhaps the partial barrel ferment; or perhaps it is the 5 per cent of Semillon in the blend. Whatever the secret, this wine has body and finesse that raises it above its Marlborough peers.
Main Divide Sauvignon Blanc
The wine exudes intertwining impressions of citrus blossom, elderflower, passion fruit, white peaches, nectarines and mango. It has a rich mid-palate but it finishes crisp, dry and zingy. The flavours linger in the mouth well after swallowing.
Black Cottage Sauvignon Blanc
This Sauvignon Blanc has a lively nose, full of lychee, gooseberry and a touch of the peapod. The palate shows great purity, with excellent fruit concentration leading to a mouth-watering finish.
Mt Difficulty Roaring Meg Sauvignon Blanc
This is a concentrated Sauvignon Blanc in a typical Central Otago style. The wine displays wild gooseberry flavours intermingled with freshly cut hay and lemon notes; this moves into a full mid-palate and then the wine finishes with lingering passionfruit and rhubarb. This wine is ideal for fun-loving, responsible summer drinking.
Mt Difficulty Bannockburn Sauvignon Blanc
A late ripening season has resulted in zesty gooseberry bound tightly in white floral aromas, with a hint of dried hay. Ripe gooseberry and savoury floral notes introduce the wine before moving into a linear flowing mid-palate. There is a nice touch of urgency with more herbs and quince notes on the finish. This wine is ideal for sensible summer evening drinking. Mt Difficulty Sauvignon Blanc will improve for 3-5 years given optimal cellaring conditions.
Misha's Vineyard The Starlet Sauvignon Blanc
MISHA'S VINEYARD The Starlet Sauvignon Blanc, Central Otago Mishas Vineyard is located on a spectacular site in New Zealand on the edge of Lake Dunstan in the Bendigo sub-region of Central Otago. The sun-drenched, north-west facing terraces of the 57 hectare estate provide optimal conditions for producing world-class Pinot Gris. A no compromise philosophy requires exacting viticulture regimes, hand-picking, and considerate winemaking methodologies. The fruit for this wine is hand-picked and whole bunch pressed. The free run and early press portion (70%) is handled anaerobically settled, racked, inoculated and then cool fermented in stainless steel without air contact. The remaining juice portion is handled more oxidatively and spends time in older French oak barrels where it goes through a spontaneous ferment. Blending the two components contributes complexity to both the flavour and texture of the finished wine, which typically shows exotically fragrant aromas of elderflower, lime and passionfruit and a rounded palate with tropical fruits and pineapple notes balanced by fresh citrus acidity.
Nautilus Estate Sauvignon Blanc
The 2018 Nautilus Sauvignon Blanc displays intense lifted aromas of citrus peel, blackcurrant buds and fresh herbs. The palate introduces a delightful lime/citrus based mouth-watering intensity and finishes with a strong textural component. The fruit was machine harvested at night or in the cool of the morning, gently crushed and pressed then fermented with a variety of aromatic yeast strains in stainless steel tanks - the sole aim being to reflect and preserve the flavours and aromas grown in the vineyard. 10% of the juice fermentations were started with a non-saccharomyces yeast and 3% of the blend was barrel fermented. After fermentation, the wine was kept in contact with the lees for five months. This classic technique enhances creaminess and integrates flavours.
Hãhã Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc
Soft golden colour with light green hues. Intensely aromatic with notes of lime zest and capsicum on the nose. A refreshing, zingy wine with flavours of fresh herbs, rounded melon and a lingering bright citrus finish. In Maori Hãhã means savoury and luscious, tasty and delicious, and once youve tried our wines, we think youll agree. Hãhã wines are from sustainable vineyards in the world-famous wine-making regions of Marlborough and Hawkes Bay. A family owned wine company, Hãhã pride themselves on making high quality, great value wines that bring people together. Hãhã Wine started when three families who were already involved in exporting apples, meat and seafood, had a chat about adding wine into the mix. That conversation lead to a unanimous agreement to produce a mouth-watering New Zealand wine to take to the world. A fourth family to join us and Hãhã Wine was launched with a bang, and quite a few pops, in 2011. All our vineyards, wineries and bottling facilities are certified as 100% sustainable by Sustainable Winegrowing New Zealand and we are committed to an environmentally responsible approach.
