Part of the winery’s premium Sound of White range, this wine offers a more textured and complex interpretation of Sauvignon Blanc, combining the region’s vibrant fruit character with the depth developed through barrel fermentation. Marlborough’s sunny days, cool nights and maritime influences encourage expressive aromatics and natural acidity. Its anticipated bouquet suggests ripe passionfruit, white peach, grapefruit and fresh lime, complemented by delicate notes of citrus blossom, toasted almond, subtle vanilla and gentle savoury spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eOn the palate, it is expected to be medium-bodied with a layered, creamy texture and refreshing acidity that maintains freshness and precision. Flavours of ripe nectarine, juicy grapefruit, passionfruit and lemon curd unfold alongside hints of toasted hazelnut, gentle spice and subtle mineral complexity. Barrel fermentation contributes additional texture and savoury depth, creating a more rounded expression of Sauvignon Blanc while allowing its bright citrus and tropical fruit flavours to remain prominent. The finish is dry, long and persistent, leaving lingering impressions of stone fruit, citrus peel and delicate toasted notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBen’s Recommendation:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for customers who appreciate premium Sauvignon Blanc with greater texture, refined complexity and subtle oak influence.
