Rapaura Springs Reserve Sauvignon Blanc is a real crowd pleaser, loved for its succulent flavours of passionfruit, tropical fruit and citrus, with a mouth-watering finish.

Winery notes (2023 Vintage)
"The Sauvignon Blanc for this wine is grown in the Dillons Point and Wairau sub-regions, known for expressive aromatics and ripe fruit flavour. We believe these sites grow the best Sauvignon Blanc in Marlborough. Our winery is the only facility in this sub-region, meaning our grapes are immediately pressed after harvest, minimising skin contact. This allows us to capture all the expressive aromatics and fruit flavour, without bitter phenolics. After pressing, the juice was settled and then cool fermented in stainless steel to retain the vibrant flavours and aromas. We use a variety of yeast strains to provide palate weight and complexity."

5 Stars & 94/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, May 2023 (2023 Vintage)
"It’s gorgeously aromatic and instantly appealing on the nose with kiwifruit, crunchy apple, rockmelon and lemon peel aromas, followed by an intensely flavoursome palate that’s juicy and lively. Upfront and pristine with loads of delicious flavours. At its best: now to 2026."

Top Value & 94/100 Bob Campbell MW, The Real Review, October 2023 (2023 Vintage)
"Tangy, refreshing sauvignon with passionfruit, guava, gooseberry, nectarine and green apple flavours supported by bright, punchy acidity that drives a lingering finish. Smooth-textured wine in a truly dry style."

92/100 Decanter Must-try Sauvignon Blanc wines, November 2023 (2023 Vintage)
"Flint, matchstick, restrained tropical fruit and mineral, ripe citrus notes. The palate is ripe but crisp, with polished and clean citrus zest, beeswax and tropical fruit notes. Fresh acidity with good intensity and texture. Elegant and well-made."

Rapaura Springs operates four vineyards: The Springs Vineyard on their home property, Bull Paddock Vineyard at Dillons Point, Blind River Vineyard South of Awatere, and Riverside Estate Vineyard on the banks of the Opawa River in Lower Wairau.
The vineyards grow Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir, Verdelho, and Chardonnay grapes.
Rapaura Springs is owned and operated in Marlborough by two families, the Wiffins and the Neylons. The Neylons were pioneers in the commercial production of green lipped mussels before partnering with the Wiffins in establishing vineyards.
Rapaura Springs was very proud to have achieved their goal of making Wine Spectator's Top 100 Wines list in 2021. Their Classic Sauvignon Blanc made it to number 41 out of 100, from a pool of over 12,500 entrants!
In 2018 Rapaura Springs purchased the Blind River Vineyard to develop Chardonnay and Pinot Noir offerings.
Rapaura Springs is committed to sustainability, investing in advanced irrigation infrastructure and water purification systems. Grape marc composting, cover crops and livestock grazing also support sustainability efforts.
