Grape

Sauvignon Blanc

Origin
Viña Leyda's vineyards are located only 12km from the Pacific Ocean, where the Humboldt Current brings cooling breezes. Sauvignon is grown in the coolest of their plots, which has a south-west aspect and porous, well-drained soils.
Taste
Intense and lifted on the nose, offering an abundance of herbal aromas, amid notes of lime and grapefruit. Crisp and juicy on the palate, with a touch of mineral texture, giving a persistent finish.
Enjoy
Drink with fresh oysters, or a crab salad with a citrus dressing.

    Very disappointing considering expert reviews and medal

    My wife (a big fan of NZ Sauvignon) couldn't even drink ths. Said it tasted fusty. Maybe we got a bad one. I drank one glass didn't really enjoy it and we poured the rest of the bottle away. Was really disappointed seeing as how this has two gushing "expert" reviews and a gold medal...

Press Reviews

  • Outstanding (2011 Vintage)

    "Wow! This has a super-exotic lychee aroma, and when you sip it, a sublime zinginess cuts through a whole stratum of tropical flavours – imagine a grapefruit and a lychee fused in a single bottle. Outstanding. (Olly Smith, The Mail on Sunday, 23rd September 2012)"

  • Stunning, bold, verdant, grapey, white currant (2010 Vintage)

    "This stunning, bold, verdant, grapey, white currant and herb-spiked white gets my vote (Jane MacQuitty, The Times, 5th May 2012)."
