Alpine Rift Sauvignon Blanc is an elegant interpretation of the classic Marlborough style. Hints of nectarine, black currant leaf and passionfruit on the nose are underpinned by a ripe, richly textured palate and crisp, citrus finish. Fruit was sourced from three exceptional vineyards in Marlborough’s Southern Valley’s, Central Wairau Plains and Awatere Valley. A combination of heavier loess clay and free-draining, alluvial soils, naturally low yields and open canopies allowed the vines to ripen small, golden bunches of intensely flavored fruit.
