A deliciously crisp, dry wine bursting with tropical fruit flavors and citrus notes.

Marlborough is a premium wine producing region that benefits from a cool maritime climate. Soils of clay loam and alluvial and glacial gravels combine with the climate to make the perfect terroir for growing Sauvignon Blanc. The grapes for The Retreat were harvested at the end of March, with the fermentation taking place in stainless steel tanks at temperatures been 10 – 14° C for 21 days.  The wine had extended lees contact for added complexity and depth.

A ripe, fruity SB with heady aromas of passion fruit, pineapple, lime leaf and bell pepper open. The palate is dry, crisp and tart with some chalky texture and a focus of fruit and fresh green garden veg to the finish. Classic Marlborough.
