Awatere Valley Sauvignon Blanc is dry and has an emphasis on aromatic herbs and fresh, green fruits, with a full and lingering mouthfeel, balanced acidity and a savoury, almost saline finish. The winemaking techniques are identical to the Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, and the differences entirely come from site selection and blending.
Quite a ripe example of the Awatere Valley style, with hints of mango and passionfruit mixed with more typical gooseberry and cut-grass flavours. Good intensity and a pleasing texture.
