Indulge in the pure expression of nature with Stoneleigh Organic Sauvignon Blanc, a wine that encapsulates the essence of New Zealand's Marlborough region. The nose is powerfully aromatic, with intense passion fruit, capsicum, fennel and white pepper notes. These echo on the palate which is medium-bodied with great concentration. Punchy flavours of citrus and green herbs complete this lively wine, sitting on vibrant fruit acids, and leading to a persistent finish.
This wine has a big personality and will work well with a multitude of flavoursome dishes. Great served with cured meats and soft cheeses in a platter. Try with fresh salads featuring citrus vinaigrette and green herb accents. Mild curries will be a hit such as a Tandoori chicken or Biryani. Seafood is a classic match such as grilled fish fillets or king prawns and a squeeze of lemon. Tomato based dishes will also work well including many Italian meals from simple pizza margherita through to a rich ragu.
This wine is released ready to drink, with the classic profile of vibrant primary fruits at the forefront for the first two years. During careful cellaring for 2-4 years, the wine will broaden, soften, and savoury flavours of nettle and asparagus will emerge.
