Grapes are hand-picked from eight of their vineyards within the stunning Wairau Valley. Always a beautiful Sauvignon Blanc, wonderfully perfumed with strong citrus characteristics, subtle tropical tones, wonderful flinty notes linger providing a complex balance to the flavours. The wine is juicy and mouth filling with vibrant ripe fruit. A fresh line of balanced acidity and soft, round texture. Delicious.

James Halliday
A relatively new name on the Marlborough scene, but don't let that fool you - Dog Point's owners have years of experience in the region (with Cloudy Bay) and this label is much sought after. A refined and elegant Marlborough sauvignon, beautifully textured and with smooth tropical and cream layers.

This offers a complex take on fruit-driven sauvignon style with fresh limes and lemons, as well as peaches on offer and there’s a succulent wrap of smooth-textured fruit to close. Drink now.

More complex sauvignon blanc. The nose has smoky hints, whispers of sulphide, and limey fruit. The palate is structured yet richly flavoured with lovely balance, ahead of a tight, lingering finish. Drink over three years.
