About This Wine

Dog Point Vineyard

Sauvignon Blanc

Hand-picked at the peak of perfection from the vineyards in the Wairau Valley. Whole bunch pressed, cold settled for fermentation incorporating indigenous yeast to capture and pay homage to the essence of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. Aged four months in stainless steel, naturally filtered and bottled to retain its classically dry and fragrant style.

Wine Region

Marlborough

New Zealand's Marlborough region is arguably its most important, a name synonymous with the country's distinctive world-class Sauvignon Blancs. Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc—with its tropical fruit, gooseberry and herbaceous notes—is one of a kind. And it is all thanks to Marlborough's terroir: a large, gravelly river valley inland of Cloudy Bay at the northeast tip of the South Island, it enjoys long, warm, maritime-influenced summers. But Marlborough isn't only about Sauvignon Blanc. The region also produces exceptional Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, sparkling wine and both dry and sweet Riesling.
