This vineyard site has proved to be the building block for some of Saint Clair’s finest wines -  it’s where Saint Clair first discovered the fruit to make their flagship Saint Clair Wairau Reserve Sauvignon Blanc.
Brilliant water like colour with greenish tinged edges. Pungent gooseberry and passionfruit aromas are trailed by notions of tomato leaf, herbaceous grassy characters and stony mineral notes. Mouth watering flavours of gooseberry and passionfruit burst across the palate underscored by citrus, herbaceous grassy characters and minerals. Dry crisp finish with a long, vibrant and intensely flavoured aftertaste.
Drink over the next 1-2 years.
Alc. 13%
