Vineyard

Lobster Reef's 200 acre vineyard is located in the Blind River Valley of Marlborough, NZ. Situated along the rocky coastline, the Sauvignon Blanc grapes are harvested in a dry environment with modest rainfall and in a tight soil structure, resulting in balanced, low vine vigor.

Vinification

The Lobster Reef winemaking team works closely with some of Marlborough’s finest growers to ensure that only the very best fruit is selected for their wines. They pick their fruit at optimum ripeness, which is why their Sauvignon Blanc is smoother, gentler and less acidic than others. The Alcohol content is made lighter using reverse osmosis and all the flavor is captured by gentle and careful reductive handling of the grapes. This limits the ingress of oxygen and allows the fruit to show its full potential. This wine is what reflects the premium regional style that has made Marlborough world famous.

Tasting Note

This Lighter in Alcohol and Lower in Calorie Sauvignon Blanc provides fresh tropical notes; followed by a light, crisp and clean palate. Hints of a very pale straw with green tints enhance the tropical and citrus fruit flavors. Enjoy it chilled, enjoy it with friends!
