Grove Mill has been making wine with as much thought for the environment as wine excellence for over 30 years. A bouquet of intense and lifted tropical fruits and a very juicy and vibrant palate makes for a punchy and contemporary style of Wairau Valley Sauvignon Blanc.

Grapes from Marlborough have produced a crisp Chardonnay with flavours of citrus, nectarine and pineapple and a lovely toasty finish.

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.

Stoneleigh Lighter Sauvignon Blanc is a full-flavoured wine that is naturally lighter in alcohol. This wine presents uplifted aromas of pink grapefruit, yellow capsicum and splashings of passionfruit. The palate presents fresh citrus flavours bound with stone fruit and passionfruit. This is a very versatile wine that can be matched with raw oysters, mussels or clam dishes. Equally good would be a fresh Caesar salad topped with smoked chicken. This wine is best enjoyed young, while expressing its unique vibrant and fresh flavours, only seen in Marlbororugh Sauvignon Blanc.

Famous for their popular and flavoursome Sauvignon Blanc, Giesen produce an enticing and pure Riesling from the same region, Marlborough. Displaying notes of citrus, white flowers and ginger on the nose, this attractive off-dry Riesling shows subtle sweet flavours of lemon curd, mandarin and orange peel. Those flavours are then balanced beautifully with a structured acid backbone and minerality that keeps the succulent flavours dancing on the palate for an age.

Allan Scott consistently produces amongst the best Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough. Mature vines and meticulous viticulture always provides quality such as this fine example.

Jules Taylor is one of the leading boutique producers in Marlborough and well worth seeking out, crafting an exceptional range of aromatic whites together with Pinot Noir. It's little surprise that her Sauvignon Blanc shines, with its pristine and delicate mineral drive backed up with some fresh green herb and tropical notes. Crisp, dry and very Moorish.

Native & Ancient explores the interaction between microbiology and human intervention, of man and nature, through a series of natural wines. The grapes for this wine are organically farmed Sauvignon Blanc sourced from Block 4 on the Isabel Estate Vineyard. The wine style, Pet Nat or Petillant Naturel translates to naturally sparkling and is achieved by bottling the wine while it is still fermenting. The wine is made in as natural a way as possible, harking back to ancient winemaking techniques, it is unfined and unfiltered with no added sulphites. A great way to kick off your weekend BBQ, refreshing, lightly sparkling, lots of ripe tropical fruit. A real fruit salad of flavours followed by a textural slightly biscuity finish. Delicious.

"Wonderful aromatics of yellow flowers, lime, and a warm summer meadow. Lovely delicious palate brimming with nectarine, fresh lime, and hints of ripe nectarine and gooseberry finishing with a lovely long feel of the stony soils and refreshing acidity."
