An individual parcel picked out by the Saint Clair winemaking team as the best of their 2018s, this is from the lower part of the Wairau Valley where proximity to the ocean and cooler night-time temperatures encourage a longer hang-time, and therefore good flavour development in the grapes. 

Saint Clair has got winning gold medals for Sauv Blanc down to a fine art, and you can see why here. It has a wonderful nose of leafy key lime pie with touches of refreshing mint. It's big and bold on the palate but with great balance and restraint, showing bags of juicy citrus zestiness. If you're going to splash out on one top-flight NZ SB this summer, then this one will surely fit the bill. (The 2017 vintage is also excellent).
