Dog Point Vineyard
Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc
Dog Point Vineyard combines experience of Ivan and Margaret Sutherland & James and Wendy Healy. Ivan and James met while working at Cloudy Bay Vineyards. Light straw with typical SB aromas adding a touch of smoky mineral character. On the palate melon and grapefruit with lemon/lime notes, generous acidity, great mouthfeel with lingering finish ending with an earthy tone. Exceptional value!

Sep 16th, 2018Opened the night with a classic NZ Sauv Blanc. Crazy petrol nose but it drinks with bright acidity, pear and green apple. Paired this with a citrusy ceviche and the results were perfect.
