The Southern Valleys subregion of Marlborough tends to house heavier, more clay dominant soils suited to Pinot Noir. This Sauvignon, however, is clearly a happy resident, showcasing a nose full of fruit—pineapple, green apple, melon and lychee—with a soft streak of green in the form of tomato leaf and nettle. It's the palate that sets this wine apart, though, balancing chalky texture with a mouthwatering acidity that glides rather than cuts like a knife on the tongue, make another sip an easy endeavor.
