Product Notes

Isabel Estate Sauvignon Blanc is an exquisite Kiwi wine, originating from the verdant landscapes of Marlborough, New Zealand. It bursts forth with a captivating bouquet of passion fruit, lemon zest, and fresh gooseberries. On the palate, this delightful wine offers a flawless balance of tropical fruit intensity and refreshing citrus twang, complemented by subtle mineral nuances and a crisp, lingering finish. It pairs impeccably with seafood dishes. Representing excellent craftsmanship and the unique terroir of its origin, this Sauvignon Blanc is a testament to Isabel Estate's commitment to producing wines of sterling quality.

Tasting Notes

A pure tropical fruit nose of passionfruit and gooseberry gives way to nuances of blackcurrant, grapefruit and underlying flinty aromas. The palate is concentrated and enticing, coupled with the classic Isabel “Old Vine” mineral tones, making this wine refreshing and traditional in style. A creamy mid palate and balanced acidity gives the wine weight and length, and makes it a great accompaniment to freshly caught fish or mussels.
