Lowlands New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc

Description

This wine is a classic Marlborough style, Sauvignon Blanc. Bright and vibrant, it’s palate leads to intense and concentrated fruit flavours. Classic tropical fruits, gooseberries and zesty grapefruit dominate the profile. The finish is dry, crisp and with a touch of creaminess. We see this wine as a perfect expression of what the UK loves about New Zealand Sauvignon.

Grape(s): Sauvignon Blanc
ABV: 13%

When Richard spent a month in in New Zealand in 2016, he met a grape grower he loved. Alan is a manure man. It was the manure recipe he has developed over the last 20 years that means he didn’t need to use spray on his vines and that the grapes he grew were of outstanding quality. This is Alan’s own ‘farmer’s cuvee’ as we call it. It’s an expression of his land, his vines and what he loves about being one of the earliest families to settle in Blenheim, Marlborough.
