Winery notes (2025 Vintage)
"Black currant vine, fennel and green apple aromas, those we have come to expect and celebrate from our Central Otago Sauvignon Blanc. A portion is fermented in new French oak barriques which elevates the aromatics, giving a smokey citrus aroma, adding weight, complexity and softening the palate"
Rated Excellent & 94/100 Cameron Douglas MS, October 2025 (2025 Vintage)
"A delicious wine, distinctive, precise and fine. Aromas and flavours of a mineral and citrus fruit centric expression, lemon and grapefruit then white flowers, white peach and crumbled stone. Taut and dry with a backbone of acidity, a quietly spoken dried herb quality, a wine with tension and poise, laser-beam acid line and lengthy finish. A wine perfectly suited to fresh seafood or as an aperitif. Well made with best drinking from 2026 through 2030."

"Maude Sauvignon Blanc 2025 is one of a few excellent examples I’ve tried of crisp, dry whites coming from Central in the last year. Blackcurrant and mint, bath salts and lavender. A lovely textural mid-palate and whilst it is a robust drop, the brash acidity that’s a signature of the region is fine and quite muted here."
