Review
Pioneers in winemaking in Marlborough ever since 1978, Saint Clair Family Estate is one of the top wineries in New Zealand. Its flagship wine, the aromatic Saint Clair Wairau Reserve Sauvignon Blanc, has enjoyed a privileged position in international markets for many years.
Made from the very best grapes on the estate (the top 2% of their Sauvignon Blanc production), the Saint Clair Wairau Reserve Sauvignon Blanc is a generous, complex and intense wine with concentrated flavours of white peach, passion fruit and fresh grapefruit. It has an unbeatable balance between sweetness and acidity, with light herbal hints and a salty minerality which leads to a long, lingering and pleasantly dry finish.
