The King's Favour Sauvignon Blanc 2022

Punchy aromatics of tropical fruit with a hint of blackcurrant leaf create a lively, fresh expression on the nose. The generous textured palate is driven by vibrant citrus fruit and white peach flavours leading to a fresh, juicy and persistent finish typical of the Waihopai Valley. This bright, vibrant Sauvignon Blanc pairs wonderfully with seafood and salads. For something different try our Kings Favour Sauvignon Blanc with a delicious Thai Green curry.

Sourced from our Waihopai River Vineyard, Waihopai Valley, Marlborough.

Selected parcels from our Waihopai vineyard were harvested at optimum ripeness and pressed into stainless-steel tanks. The juice was then racked and inoculated with yeasts that promote tropical aromas and enhance the natural Sauvignon Blanc characteristics. This was then followed by a long, cool fermentation after which select components of this wine were chosen for their punchy aroma profile and strong Waihopai terroir. Blending, stabilisation and filtration occurred over winter before bottling in the spring.
