New Zealand is one of the most isolated countries on Earth, and the small country surprised everyone when its crisp, focused wines began impressing critics in the 1990s. New Zealand first made its impact on the wine world with Sauvignon Blanc from the picturesque Marlborough region. Zingy, floral and herbaceous, these mouthwatering Sauvignon Blancs thrilled wine lovers. Pinot Noir is another success story here, becoming blissfully elegant with beautiful cherry aromas in regions like Central Otago and Wairarapa. While Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir star in New Zealand, stunning whites like Riesling, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay, and complex reds such as Syrah and Merlot, also find a welcome home in this beautiful and rugged land.
