Sauvignon Blanc |

Palliser Estate:
This wholly seductive wine is one of the greatest Sauvignon Blanc in the country, with a distinguished track record to prove it. It is typically an immaculate classy wine, fresh, lively and simply overflowing with flavour
In our Martinborough vineyards we train the vines to achieve a low canopy density and well-exposed fruit. This combined with judicious leaf plucking produces the distinctive fruit flavours in the wine. When the grapes are judged to be at their optimum maturity they are harvested and processed to retain the inherent fruitiness of this varietal.
It's succulent and rounded on the palate with refreshing acidity and a delicious finish. It's almost explosive on the palate with loads of mouth-pleasing flavours. Another great Sauvignon blanc from Palliser Estate.
