| Sauvignon Blanc, Martinborough 2008 (12) :: $240.00
240.00 |
The wait is over. This outstanding 2008 sauvignon blanc is now available. An exuberance of citrus and tropical fruit dominates the nose and the palate is showing excellent weight balanced perfectly with fresh acidity.
This is an intensely flavoured, full-bodied sauvignon blanc, perfect for drinking now or cellar until 2012 (if you can hold off that long). Enjoy it with every kind of fish or as a perfect companion to flavourful appetizers and wicked zesty rocket salads.

| Winemakes notes: |
 |
| The slow start to summer in 2008 was well rewarded in Martinborough, with balmy summer conditions lingering well through harvest. This made for perfect sauvignon blanc conditions. Here we have fruit from two key vineyard sites, fermenting them separately which allowed the retention of the distinctive characters from each block. |
