Grape

Sauvignon Blanc

Origin
This is the flagship Sauvignon Blanc from the Fairbourne Estate, made from grapes grown on elevated sites on the north-facing slopes of the Wairau Valley. Warm days and cool nights provide optimum conditions for ripening which makes for maximum freshness and purity.
Taste
Intense yet with a slightly reserved character, this well-balanced Sauvignon possesses an elegance and minerality normally only achieved by the top Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé estates.
Enjoy
Drink early to preserve the beautiful freshness of the wine, and match with smoked salmon, melon or cured hams.

    A Wonderful Example of NZ SB

    This is a wonderful example of a sophisticated Marlborough Savignon Blanc with great tones of Citrus fruits - grapefruits, lime and fresh goosberry shine. If you want a weekend treat to drink as an apreitif or with seafood this is fab!

    a different wine?!

    I don't agree with the rating from sarah. I bought this a couple of weeks ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. More complex than many other Kiwi sauvignons, as you might expect from the price. It's a bit of a treat, but well worth it.
