Esk Valley Sauvignon Blanc is an exceptional wine from New Zealand's esteemed Marlborough region. Its splendidly bright and crisp character, intertwined with wonderfully fresh, citrussy undertones offers a remarkably refined flavour profile. Aromas of passionfruit, lime and acacia bloom appeal to the nose, before yielding to a palate featuring generous tropical fruit flavours. The wine impresses with its superb balance between vivacious acidity and sumptuous fruitiness, leading to a refreshingly dry finish. Perfect for sipping on a sun-drenched afternoon, it pairs brilliantly with seafood or a zesty salad. A classic representation of Marlborough’s quintessential Sauvignon Blanc, it delights discerning oenophiles worldwide.

Tasting Notes

This a very aromatic and intensely flavoured wine true to its Marlborough origins. Its flavours are a mix of ripe tropical fruits, citrus and cooler notes of green fruits and fresh herbs. It is rich and full-flavoured with a crisp dry finish which provides freshness and length to the palate.
