Very typical sauvignon blanc with sliced pears and spiced apples. Medium-bodied with a fruity, fresh finish and a softness at the same time. Drink now. Screw cap.

Cherry and strawberry juice is woven with minty herbs, cloves and cracked pepper to form a hotel soap character. It's mid-weight with quite a powerful line of sappy, herb-flecked tannins, but with enough fruit density (and purity) to hold them up. Sip very slightly chilled with a fatty charcuterie.

Seven percent of the 2024 Alpine Rift Sauvignon Blanc was fermented in oak, and the wine is textural and very fine. It represents a refined and restrained expression of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, yet it doesn't lose the juicy, satisfying intensity of Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough, ditto the chalky texture. It's pure. This is really good. I like the crystalline polish of it.
