CABLE BAY SAUVIGNON BLANC 2023

This wine grabs you from the moment it enters the glass, conveying all the characteristics of the Awatere river region. There’s a riverstone flintiness, lime zest, guava and passionfruit aromas. The alluvial gravel and ocean influenced terroir of this site gives a chalky mineral element to the wine which is reminiscent of lime sorbet, the salinity fits in with the well-directed crisp acidity for a long finish. Lees ageing contributes further complexity and weight to the palate. All of these elements come together for a refreshingly complex and balanced Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc
