This quintessential Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is right on point with its tropical fruitiness – think guava, melon, lemon and lime, herbal whiffs and talc-like mineral sweetness. It’s pure, racy and packed with juiciness.

If you’re after a young, fresh, zesty Sauvignon Blanc with squeaky acidity, you’ve come to the right place. The Dog Point boys have delivered yet again. Matches shell fish (particularly mussels and oysters), white meats and soft cheeses to a tee.

Colour: Pale straw

Bouquet: Bright, fresh, citrus driven sauvignon, with elements of honeydew melon, pears and gala apples in the background. A very pure, yet restrained, classic sauvignon expression.

Palate: The citrus core of flavours are juicy and intense. Deliciously refreshing acidity and mellow rounded texture on the finish. The wine calls for fresh, simple seafood, but as usual, can be enjoyed on its own.

Superclassic Marlborough Sauvignon from one of the best winemaking teams in the South Island. Rich and concentrated with lively complexity. Dog Point never fails to impress.

Tasting Notes

Bob Campbell MW, The Real Review writes "Bright, fresh wine with typical varietal/regional characters including capsicum, gooseberry, lemongrass and passionfruit. Appealing purity with a perfect sweet/sour balance. A pleasure to taste."

Cameron Douglas MS writes "Fragrant, ripe, fruity, varietal and captivating bouquet with scents of fresh citrus and apple, lemon and white fleshed orchard fruits, a core of minerality with a stony wet river pebble quality. Delicious on the palate, crisp and dry with a classic backbone of acidity, fresh mountain herbs and fruit flavours that reflect the bouquet. The lengthy finish and textures along with core varietal fruit highlights deliver a wine for all fans of SB."

The winery writes"Our version of the classic dry aromatic style of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. The citrus core of flavours are juicy and intense with deliciously refreshing saline acidity. The wine calls for simple fresh seafood but can also be enjoyed as a pre-dinner aperitif."

Stock Level: Limited Vintage: 2023 Volume: 750ml Alcohol: 13.0 Seal Type: Screwcap Dietary Requirements: Organic

Pure and bright perfume with aromatics of grapefruit and white peach. Subtle smoke and gravelly tones layered over this create a complexity beyond the immediate fruit profile. Juicy, plush, white fleshed fruit pour across the palate with a refreshing and defined acidity balancing the sunny fruit profile, finishing clean and dry.

Additional information

Type: White wine

Grape varial: 100% Sauvignon Blanc

Alcohol: 13% vol

Food match: Fresh, simple seafood dishes especially oysters. Also compliments goat cheese well. Try a goat cheese summer salad.

Vineyard location: Wairau Valley, Marlborough, New Zealand

Soil type: Silty-clay loams, some parcels with gravels interspersed.

Vintage: A mild spring after a wet winter in 2022 gave the vines a good start to growth. Budburst timing occurred around average from early September with only a few minor frost events occurring after that. Flowering in November was during a period of cool and grey conditions which managed to produce a respectable yield. December continued with drizzly weather, meaning an exceptionally large amount of work was required to maintain healthy fruit into January. March and April returned to more settled, drier conditions, giving the vines a chance to ripen in beautiful conditions, with our classic, cool overnight temperatures and sunny days.

Winemaking: Dog Point's version of the classic aromatic Marlborough style of Sauvignon Blanc. Handpicked fruit is whole bunch pressed and cold settled before fermentation. A portion of this wine is fermented using indigenous yeasts. The wine is aged for 4 months in stainless steel tanks then bottled without fining.

Is a 7 year old Sauvignon Blanc good?

In most of my wine classes, I offer students a young Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc and invite them to compare it to a wine by the same producer that's 5-7 years old. Most prefer the older wine, which tends to be richer, mellower and more complex than the younger sample.
