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.

Craggy Range Avery Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc is a true star in the field of New Zealand Sauvignon Blancs. This is a wine with quite brilliant structure consisting of a fine line of acid and great minerality. Flavour notes of herbs, wet slate and gooseberry to give some varietal lift.

This wine shows an array of fruit characters, ranging from citrus through to tropical notes. This is complemented by some secondary characters from the natural yeast ferments and also some barrel aging. The palate has an elegant structure with a creamy, textural mid-palate and a long finish.

Sunday Bay is a phenomenon. Kiwi Sauvignon is by far our most popular style, and our range is full of standout examples. So it’s a huge statement that Sunday Bay, year after year, is the one our customers rate highest and re-order most. It's made by an award-winning family winery, who were some of the first pioneers of the Marlborough region. Phil and Chris Rose founded the estate back in 1978, now their five children have joined them, so it's very much a family affair. Their Sunday Bay is a classic Sauvignon. Exuberant grapefruit and grassy nettle character with a bright citrus zip; all the usual Marlborough pizzazz and more. It’s very moreish solo or makes the perfect partner to all sorts of seafood, spicy stir-fry or Thai fish cakes.

Brightwater is from a tiny family estate our Buyer first visited in 2002, having noticed that famous Aussie wine writer James Halliday had reviewed their Sauvignon above Cloudy Bay. Their 2009 was also rated as 5 Stars by top Kiwi wine critic Bob Campbell MW. A classic match with goat's cheese, it's also just the ticket with seafood, especially oysters. Alternatively, enjoy as a refreshing glass on its own.

The 2024 Russian Jack Sauvignon Blanc is everything you want from Marlborough in one neat, vibrant package. Sourced from both the Wairau and Awatere Valleys, it blends the best of both worlds - bright tropical aromatics from the Wairau fruit and a fresh, mineral-driven edge from the cooler, wind-swept Awatere sites. Named after a legendary vineyard worker known for his strength and generosity, Russian Jack is a wine that doesn’t overpromise but always delivers. It’s crisp and lively, with plenty of citrus and passionfruit character, backed by a mouth-watering acidity that keeps things snappy. Wild ferment? Fancy oak? Not here. This is a straight-up, no-fuss take on Sauvignon Blanc made to be enjoyed young and fresh. Perfect for sunny days, seafood, or just catching up with mates over a bottle that won’t break the bank. 93 points"Crunchy apple, kiwifruit, kaffir lime and green tea aromas… Excellent concentration and intensity on the palate. Highly enjoyable. At its best: now to 2026."- Sam Kim (Wine Orbit)
