The Ned Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc
The Ned is a Kiwi Savvy with a more mineral accent, offering structure indicative of Marlborough region. The tropical elements still shine gooseberries aplenty and a dainty touch of fruit sweetness in the finish. The citrus fuelled aromatic thread that dominates the nose carries through to the palate with concentrated flavours of mandarin and musky pink grapefruit. Fine, ripe acids and a slightly heightened sense of roundness characterise the palate makes this a must try wine. GOLD Medal | International Wine & Spirits Competition 2017.
Stoneleigh Latitude Sauvignon Blanc
This wine exhibits aromas of fresh citrus blossom, pineapple, passionfruit and hints of melon. This follows through to a weighty palate with Honeydew melon, grapefruit and nuances of lime zest. This wine has a natural weight and concentration that lingers on the palate before finishing with a crisp citrus twist. The son of farmers, Jamie found that making wine was a superior choice to farming sheep. In Marlborough, the small New Zealand region, the industry literally grew up around him. At Stoneleigh, the philosophy is less is more. Its about making sure everything they do has a purpose, not simply following tradition or fads. This minimal intervention style of winemaking invites golden moments that come together to let the wines and vines tell their own story. - Jamie Marfell, Chief Winemaker.
