Producer Te Whare Ra (TWR) is a small vineyard and winery located in the Marlborough sub-region of Renwick. The farming is done by hand, hand pruning, and hand picking, keeping yields low, and they farm according to bio-dynamic and organic farming principles, which is not all that common for the Marlborough region as many producers are mass-producing wine. TWR keeps quality at the forefront of what they do while also producing wine that is accessible and celebrates the region's varieties and styles. Tasting Note Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc can be quite polarising due to sometimes soaring acidity and a pronounced grassy character; TWR does a great job of toeing the line between winning over all different palates while also pleasing the most avid Marlborough drinker. With flavours of gooseberry, passionfruit and some subtle grassiness, this wine is light, aromatic and refreshing. Give it a go!
