Pale lemon. The bouquet is classical Marlborough and reflective of the warm summer with aromas of grapefruit, lemongrass, white currant, peach, exotic fruits and crushed herbs. On the palate, pure and concentrated with intermingling flavours of grapefruit, white peach, lemongrass, passionfruit and citrus and a saline, mouth-watering finish. Medium bodied, the palate is powerful and dense yet retains elegance and freshness with a lingering, precise finish.
We recommend enjoying our 2024 Sauvignon Blanc while it is young and fresh, but the wine is capable of developing nicely beyond five years if carefully cellared. A perfect accompaniment to oysters and fresh seafood, Japanese cuisine, summer salads, light poultry and salty cheeses.

The life of the party, this lucid, bombastic Savvy B offers up heady lime, lemongrass and pink grapefruit aromas, with a whisper of dried herbs below. There's a gently slippery quality to the texture. In rushes the limey acidity to dial it up a notch—or ten. — Christina Pickard
