This is everything we love about Kiwi Sauvignon Blanc, wrapped up with a bow on top.

Refined and complex, transcending the vibrant style New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc is known for. A long ripening season delivers intense citrus and tropical fruit lifted byherbal notes and bright acidity that lead into a mineraldriven, elegant palate. Low yields, partial handpicking and varied fermentation vessels—including stainless steel,French oak, and amphora—bring layered complexity. Over 50 parcels blend to create a wine of remarkable depth—purely reflective of Te Muna’s distinctive terroir.

Tasting Note

Pale lemon straw.

  • Aromas of white flowers and blossom enfold freshly cut peaches and passionfruit. On the palate, the fruit and floral notes are bright and expressive, intertwined with hints of preserved lemon and key lime. The wine is fresh, elegant, and textural, with a saline minerality imparted by the river stones that it was grown on.
  • Style: A Sauvignon Blanc with serious depth—crafted for connoisseurs who appreciate precision, minerality and gastronomic versatility rather than purely “tropical fruit bomb” credentials.
  • Food Pairing

    Ideal with fresh oysters and shellfish, ripe goat cheese or fresh salads (fennel, citrus, mint), grilled white fish, and Asian cuisine with aromatic spice (Vietnamese, Thai basil). Its texture and minerality make it a natural companion to seafood‑centric menus, yacht hors d’oeuvres and light fine‑dining plates.
