A classic expression of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, being 100% tank fermented, but it offers complexity of texture and a mineral drive that summons river stones and sea spray. Blackcurrant, guava and passion fruit are captured alongside the subtlest hint of oyster-shell. This wine is focused and explosive on both nose and palate yet remains elegantly balanced, with distinct salinity. Enjoy with a salmon ceviche or tuna tartare.

Very nice Marlborough SB. Fresh, delicate flavors – pineapple , citrus, grassy notes.
Excellent minerality, almost salty.
