Sauvignon Blanc

Sourced from established vineyards in the world-famous Marlborough region. Fresh and vibrant with passion fruit, gooseberry and melon characters. Crisp, clean finish. Great stuff, great value. 2021 was a very tough year for New Zealand Sauvignon production due to severe frosts in the spring resulting in a much depleted harvest. Although the volumes of Sauvignon produced were much smaller, the quality of the wine is exceptional, so get your hand on this yummy wine while you can!

WATERKLOOF estate was founded in 2004, ending Paul Boutinot’s persistent and uncompromising 10 year search for a vineyard site with the potential to produce truly fine wine with a defining sense of origin.

Certified by Demeter in 2015, their vineyards are of only a few in the Cape to boast official biodynamic approval and status. The estate has 56 hectares under vine and Tim Atkin’s Cape Classification currently ranks Waterkloof as 5th Growth level.

Respect for nature, traditional winemaking practices and minimal intervention are all key to their success.

Zephyr Wines is a family winery based in Dillon’s Point, Marlborough and was started by the Glover family in 1985 after being inspired by other mavericks in the region to convert their farm to vine. They've never looked back and Owen and Wendy Glover, along with son Ben, one of New Zealand’s most acclaimed and talented winemakers, now produce award-winning wines from what has become one of the most established single vineyards in the region.  The Gewurtzraminer and a Riesling follow suit in showcasing the more savoury and 'savage' style Zephyr has become renowned for. The critics are proving what we’ve known for a long time: that the Glover’s are styling something special out of Marlborough vines that no-one else has.
