MOKOblack Sauvignon
New Zealand wines are made from vineyards in each sub-region of Marlborough, the Awatere, Waihopai and Wairau Valleys. These valleys have their micro-climates and terroir, which give a unique personality to the vineyards, grapes and finished wine. The wines are winemaker Samantha Bailey.
In The Vineyard
Select small parcels from the southern Waihopai
Valley ridges were harvested at different times and
levels of ripeness and vinified separately. In The Winery
The vinification techniques provided a range of flavour profiles from which to blend. With cool ferments to retain freshness, and some tropical
components aged on lees for texture and palate weight. The assemblage of this wine has resulted in a multilayered wine that is flavoursome.
Food Recommendations
The bright, crisp Sauvignon is a perfect match with
all sea beasties from delicate, freshly caught
seafood to rich and meaty barbecued king prawns.
