The Nest Lighter Sauvignon Blanc 2023 – Six Pack

The zesty pith from the air lingers on your tongue. Now (still imagining) place a chilled gooseberry beneath your nose, take a sniff. Then put it into your mouth with a couple of juicy blackcurrants. Bite down. That’s it. Right there.

That’s what you’re about to experience as you sniff and take your first sip. Now open your eyes, crack the top off it and pour this fresh, clean Marlborough New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc and don’t look back.

Region: Marlborough.

Style: Dry.

Vineyard: Fruit for this wine is sourced and blended from specially selected Marlborough vineyards.

Winemaker: Chloe Gabrielsen

Vinification: The grapes were harvested earlier than our other Nest wines, before the sugar levels became too high. This allowed the production of a wine lower in alcohol but rich in flavour.

Appearance: Pale green

Bouquet: Bright aromatics of gooseberry, capsicum and apple blossom leap from the glass.

Palate: An intense and herbaceous palate with ripe green characters of currant and nettle. Tropical passionfruit flavours add a sweetened contrast before a salty minerality cuts through the finish.

Cellaring: Enjoy now and over the next 3 to 5 years. If you read the back label you might be able to last 2 minutes before opening it.

Vegan: Suitable for vegans.

Packaging: 6 x 750mL bottles, screw cap closure.
