Tasting Note

Straw-yellow with flashes of lemon skin, this wine shows an intriguing nose of subtle funk, fennel, cut straw, and tarragon. The palate is taut and savoury, layered with coriander seed, umami complexity, and bright lime, all driven by a thrillingly “corrupt” acidity that gives edge and persistence.

Product Notes

Exuding a true expression of New Zealand spirit, the Zephyr MKIII Sauvignon Blanc is a symphony of bold flavours. With delicate notes of gooseberry, passionfruit and prickly pear, it offers beautifully entwined complexity. Floral undertones underscore the wine, with elderflower and honeysuckle aromas tracing a subtle trajectory from nose to palate. This wine boasts an invigorating citrus zestiness, further complemented by hints of freshly cut grass. Light-bodied yet rich, Zephyr MKIII Sauvignon Blanc is a refreshing spectacle of acidity and crispness. It is a sublime pour for those seeking a generously aromatic and intensely satisfying white wine experience.

About the Winery

Zephyr

Zephyr Winery is a quintessential family-owned vineyard that has proven over time to possess an unyielding commitment to producing fine wines. This gem has been owned by the Mills family since 1985, with its location embedded in the heart of the Marlborough region in New Zealand.

Owen and Wendy Mills, pioneers in Marlborough’s flourishing wine industry, were fervently committed to developing a unique wine style of their own, and this initiative led to the establishment of Zephyr Winery. Through decades of hard work and a deep understanding of the region's terroir, they have managed to cultivate a distinctive flavour profile, which has been handed down to their palate-savvy children: Ben and Jack Mills.

In conjunction with this revered family tradition, Ben and Jack have ushered in a fresh blend of tradition and innovation that continues to influence their remarkable selection of wines. Their devotion towards producing excellent wines can be seen prominently in Zephyr's Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir, which regularly receive international acclaim.

Intrigued by their story of family, tradition, and a clear passion for quality? The Zephyr Winery is nestled at 82 Hammerichs Road, Renwick; you can't miss it with the picturesque views of the surrounding mountains and vibrant vine trellises.

And even though this family-owned winery has accumulated a wide range of successful ventures within the wine industry; it remains fundamentally grounded in the very core principles that triggered its conception, the supreme quest for wine excellence, and maintaining the legacy of a unique family tradition.
