Winery notes (2024 Vintage)
"Bright, fresh and zingy, exhibiting hints of freshly cut capsicum, lime and green apple on the nose through to a richly structured palate which has gentle acidity, a touch of elegance and a long, lingering finish."
Rated Excellent & 93/100 Cameron Douglas MS, December 2024 (2024 Vintage)
"Vibrant and distinctive bouquet with aromas of passion fruit and lime, fresh apple and tropical cape gooseberry fruits. The nettle and grassy qualities classic in many Sauvignons Blanc are tastefully apparent here too. Crisp and dry, fruity and loud. great texture and length with a focus on citrus and tropical fruit flavours. Fresh and ready with best drinking from 2024 through 2028."
5 Stars & 93/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, July 2024 (2024 Vintage)
"Pristine and delightfully aromatic, showing passionfruit, kiwifruit, Gala apple and lemon zest aromas on the nose. The palate delivers excellent weight and fruit intensity, beautifully supported by fine acidity, finishing long and exuberant. At its best: now to 2028."
92/100 David Walker Bell, WineFolio.co.nz, July 2025 (2024 Vintage)
"A Sauvignon Blanc from ‘The Golden Mile’ of the Rapaura sub-region in Marlborough. Very pale straw-green in the glass, with a vibrant bouquet, bursting with pineapple, passionfruit, greengage, grapefruit, woody herbs and lemon blossom. The palate is dry and prickling with a silvery spine of acidity, highlighting the sweet-fruited core. A lovely balance of acid and juice seems refined and is certainly well-rounded. The tension-filled palate carries flavours that reflect the perfume, progressing smoothly to a long finish."
