Tasting Note

Upon release it has a subtle lemon hue. The bouquet is vibrant, an intoxicating assortment of tropical and citrus. Heady aromas of passionfruit and pineapple flirt temptingly against a backdrop of grapefruit, green apple, lemon peel and a hint of gunflint. The mouthfeel is textured yet precise, with a rousing whip of acidity and simmering phenolics that give the wine increased structure and length. A complex and serious Sauvignon Blanc, displaying intense varietal character, a multi- faceted palate, and a long salivating finish.

Product Notes

Pegasus Bay Sauvignon Blanc is an acclaimed New Zealand wine hailing from the esteemed Waipara region. Lending a luminous yellow hue, its bouquet bursts forth with notes of zesty citrus, ripe gooseberries, and undertones of tropical fruit. On the palate, this Sauvignon Blanc unites fresh acidity with a vibrant minerality, leading to a lengthy, crisp finish. The wine's stellar balance of flavours lends itself to a robust complexity, making it an ideal accompaniment for light, summer dishes. Time and again, Pegasus Bay Sauvignon Blanc validates its standing as a representation of the superior quality of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc.
