Sauvignon Blanc
Sauvignon Blanc excels here as a high-acid, aromatic grape, showing citrus, tropical fruit, green herb, and mineral snap with very little need for oak influence.
Free-draining river stones and alluvial soils encourage aromatic concentration. Cool fermentation in stainless steel protects the wine's passion fruit, lime, and herbaceous clarity.
Explosive aromatics of passion fruit, lime, grapefruit, gooseberry, and fresh basil are balanced by a clean stony edge.
Cloudy Bay remains a benchmark name for Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc and is often the bottle people search when exploring New Zealand whites.
