Whitehaven Sauvignon Blanc is a quintessential New Zealand Sauvy sourced fromcertified sustainable vineyards across the Wairau and Awatere valleys. 100%Marlborough grapes are harvested during the cool night hours to lock in the classicaromatic freshness, crisp acidity and thiols that this region is famous for. The nosedelivers an aromatic bouquet of ripe citrus, green apple, lemongrass, and white peach,alongside classic regional touches of fresh cut grass and jalapeno (and yes, even thecat pee on a gooseberry bush ). On the palate, masterfully balanced structureshowcases juicy tropical flavors of passion fruit and pineapple with a distinctive salinenote all driven by a mouthwatering acidity and a long, clean finish. The medium-bodyand zippy acidity of this wine pairs well with oysters, goat cheese, or summer salads.
