Wairau River Sauvignon Blanc
Exclusively sourced from family vineyards dating from 1983, there’s a wonderful persistence, seamless line and textural appeal to this wine that proclaim the maturity and confidence of its vines. These are traits juvenile vines can only dream of. Pink lady apple, gooseberry and passionfruit are underlined by clean acid on a persistent, lemon zest-accented finish. $19 at Corkscrew and Purvis.
