Notes | |||
"The Invivo X, SJP Sauvignon Blanc is a blend of five estates in Marlborough, spanning both Wairau and Awatere Valleys with vines ageing from three to eleven years. Sarah Jessica loved the intensity of style from the Waihopai Valley and has blended that with pure fruit aromatics from the Western Wairau and the power and purity found in the Westhaven Vineyard in the Dashwood. The Westhaven vineyard is one of the last blocks of Sauvignon Blanc in Marlborough to be harvested and so has an extremely long season to develop flavor and power." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Leaps out of the glass with vivid aromatics, including passion fruit, pineapple and guava, with accents of crunchy sea salt, lime zest, fresh-grated ginger and white pepper minerality. Shows extra verve on the finish, where details of green tea and lemongrass emerge. Drink now." —Wine Spectator "Aromas of passion fruit, peaches, sliced yellow grapefruit and tarragon. Medium-bodied with nice concentration and a silky texture. Candied lemon finish. Sustainable. Drink now. Screw cap." —James Suckling |
