Rapaura Springs Rohe Blind River Sauvignon Blanc 2023
New Zealand, Awatere Valley
Sauvignon Blanc
Description
Intensely aromatic with lemongrass and ripe citrus aromas and concentrated fruit flavour. The palate is weighty with mouth-filling layers of ripe grapefruit, lemongrass, and melon. The mouth-watering acidity helps drive a lengthy finish. This wine is immediately expressive but will continue to drink well for the next five years

Vineyard
Blind River is the driest, coolest, and most windswept sub-region in Marlborough. Grapes grown here develop unique and intensified flavours as the grapevines are naturally restricted. The soils in this region are typically free draining, with a diverse composition of stone materials
