In 2015, the Sauvignon Blanc for Te Koko was sourced from some of our oldest vines across four distinguished vineyards. The vineyards are located <br>within the sub-regions of Rapaura and Renwick. These vineyards yield intense fruit with powerful structure. True to Marlborough, the soils are predominantly comprised of free draining gravels that have a particular <br>affinity for Sauvignon Blanc, producing grapes with high concentration and elegant, pure-fruited aromatic. Aromatically, the wine offers notes of ripe citrus, stone fruit and gentle, savoury spice. The palate is initially <br>taut and quite tightly wound, with fresh, vibrant grapefruit and white nectarine providing a mouthwatering entry. With time in the glass, these <br>more vibrant characters meld with richer tones of honey and beeswax, adding texture and depth. Concentrated and complex, the wine finishes with notes of ripe stone fruit, savoury smoke and graphite and just a hint of summer flowers.
