Product Notes

Greywacke Marlborough Wild Sauvignon is a distinctive, enchanting wine hailing from New Zealand's famous Marlborough region. It astounds with a complex, layered aroma bursting with tropical notes, counterpointed by a nuanced herbaceous undertone. Wild fermented in old French oak barrels, this wine goes through an adventurous journey becoming extraordinarily textural and multi-dimensional. It exhibits vibrant citrus and exotic fruit flavours, brilliantly interwoven with a flinty mineral edge. This sumptuous Sauvignon Blanc elegantly teases the palate with a savoury, wonderfully-long finish, exhibiting a synergy between sophistication and intense flavour—the ideal companion to any culinary delight.

Tasting Notes

Flavours of a summer fruit salad of paw paw, honeydew melon and ripe, golden quinces – drizzled with citrus flower water and a squeeze of orange skin oil. A delicious floral fragrance and juicy tropical fruit, infused with a fennel-like herbal thread and a faint whiff of wood smoke. Fermented entirely with naturally occurring yeast, this is an alternative style of Sauvignon Blanc that is both intricate and textural, with a rich, succulent palate finishing crisp and long with a flinty dryness.
