Aromas that Captivate:

As you uncork the bottle, prepare to be greeted by an explosion of fresh, inviting aromas. Intense melon and grapefruit notes dominate the nose, hinting at the juicy character to come. Look closer, and you might detect subtle whispers of gooseberry and passionfruit, adding complexity to the bouquet. This Sauvignon Blanc is a true testament to the Marlborough terroir, where sunshine-drenched grapes imbue the wine with their unmistakable grassy fragrance – a characteristic many Sauvignon Blanc lovers adore.

A Palate that Dances:

The first sip of Oriwa Sauvignon Blanc is a revelation. Benchmark bright, ripe tropical flavours dance on the palate, offering a refreshing medley of passion fruit and mango. These vibrant notes are interwoven with hints of soft white peach, lemon, and even a touch of candied apple for a touch of intriguing complexity. The high acidity, a hallmark of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, cuts through the sweetness beautifully, creating a lively and mouth watering experience that begs for another sip.

Food Pairings to Delight:

Oriwa Sauvignon Blanc's versatility makes it a perfect companion for a variety of dishes. Here are some food pairings that will elevate your dining experience:

  • Salads: The refreshing character of Oriwa Sauvignon Blanc complements salads beautifully. Pair it with a summery salad bursting with fresh vegetables, grilled chicken, or goat cheese.
  • Goat Cheese: The tangy flavours of goat cheese find a perfect counterpoint in the wine's acidity. Serve Oriwa Sauvignon Blanc alongside a creamy goat cheese spread on crusty bread or incorporated into a salad.
  • Aromatic Curries:  For a touch of adventure, try pairing Oriwa Sauvignon Blanc with aromatic curries. The wine's tropical fruit notes can hold their own against the complex spices, creating a delightful harmony.
  • Sparkling Match for Appetisers: Feeling festive?  Start your meal with a glass of Oriwa Sauvignon Blanc alongside a selection of appetisers. The wine's bright acidity will cleanse the palate between bites, preparing your guests for the culinary journey ahead.
