NZ Brightwater Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc

When it comes to Sauvignon Blanc, It is now considered that, on a par with the Loire Valley in France, New Zealand sets the benchmark for this grape variety. However, generally, the Kiwi version is less subtle and more pungently aromatic and explosively flavoured in style.

Marlborough’s warm days and cool nights create an extended growing season allowing the grapes to develop beautiful acidity.  This balances the intense varietal characteristics of ripe grapefruit, white nectarine, and tropical fruits resulting in an elegant wine that distinctly says Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc.
