Our Black Label range is crafted specifically to complement food. Showcasing the unique depth and complexity of a Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, this rich, well-rounded classic offers ripe tropical fruits and citrus notes with a mineral spiced finish.
TASTING NOTES
Inviting and musky. Gooseberry, mandarin and a hint of fennel.
Fresh and lively on entry with lemon, lime, gooseberry and blackcurrant. Mid-palate builds in weight and flavours of grapefruit and honeydew melon join. Pineapple evident on the finish. Soft and layered with a lingering spicy finish.

WINEMAKER NOTES
Grapes from our Waihopai, Awatere and Wairau Valley Estates were picked, crushed, and pressed with minimal skin contact. The juice was clarified then fermented in stainless steel tanks with a variety of yeast species to build in some textural and flavour complexity. A portion underwent malolactic fermentation also. After extensive tastings by the winemakers, this blend was assembled, lightly fined and bottled.
