Wither Hills Sauvignon Blanc 2022

"Layers of passionfruit and pink grapefruit with hints of tropical fruit, melon, and fresh herb. Rich and mouthfilling. Laden with tropical fruit and citrus impressively structured by juicy acidity." —winemaker

"Pale straw color with green highlights. Powerful gooseberry, white currant, red capsicum, passionfruit and lime peel aromas. Medium-bodied, with strong flavors of makrut lime, passionfruit, lemongrass and a refreshingly smooth, dry and persistent finish." —winemaker

"The Dillons Point Sauvignon Blanc is sourced from a selection of vineyards located predominantly in the lower Wairau sub-region of Marlborough. This region is renowned for producing excellent Sauvignon Blanc with heightened expression." —winemaker

"Very pale yellow. On the nose fragrant notes of elderflower, guava and mint jump out of the glass, followed by hints of oregano and thyme layered with passionfruit and citrus. This in-your-face drop captures the essence of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. Concentrated citrusy notes of lime zest and tropical guava combine with a lick of wet stones. The palate is dry and gives way to a lip-smacking, mouth-watering finish." —winemaker

"The Invivo X, SJP Sauvignon Blanc is a blend of five estates in Marlborough, spanning both Wairau and Awatere Valleys with vines ageing from three to eleven years. Sarah Jessica loved the intensity of style from the Waihopai Valley and has blended that with pure fruit aromatics from the Western Wairau and the power and purity found in the Westhaven Vineyard in the Dashwood. The Westhaven vineyard is one of the last blocks of Sauvignon Blanc in Marlborough to be harvested and so has an extremely long season to develop flavor and power." —winemaker

"Pale straw. A pure expression of Dog Point Sauvignon with lifted aromatics of granny smith apple, lemon rind as well as floral tones of orange blossoms and elderflower burst from the glass. Bright citrus flavors from an elegant year, followed by saline acidity washing across the palate, leaving subtle tropical tones unfurling on the finish." —winemaker

"Very pale straw. A fresh and exuberant release from 2022 that talks to the vintage. Typical aromas of passionfruit pulp interwoven with kaffir lime leaf. The palate has the textural elements we have come to love in this vineyard, with succulence and sophistication." —winemaker

"An intensely aromatic nose, this is a delicious medley of ripe citrus, tropical fruit and a hint of something savory. The fruit spectrum is complex and while overwhelmingly ‘Sauvignon Blanc’, the addition of delicate oak adds another dimension. The striking palate immediately fills the mouth and finds a crisp finish to a long and balanced interplay of fruit and acidity. Delicate white wine tannins provide the framework and, combined with an approachable acidity, focuses the palate toward a long and elegant finish." —winemaker

"Whitehaven captures intense notes of passionfruit, lemongrass and white peach in this bold, refreshing Sauvignon Blanc. Superbly structured and elegantly balanced, with fresh-snipped greens and citrus characteristics that blend effortlessly with notes of tropical fruit. Each glass boasts the long, clean finish of classic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc." —winemaker

"Our single vineyard wine is genuinely aromatic, with focused minerality, balanced by fruit ripeness, intensity and great breadth and texture. Add a delicacy and elegance born of the locality, and the result is a wine full of complexity, genuinely resulting from the vineyard location in Blind River rather than prescriptive winemaking techniques. Showing super freshness, juicy acidity and a tactile phenolic profile in its youth, it will, as usual, get even better as the wine integrates." —winemaker
