DESCRIPTION
Tai Tira, ‘Sea Traveller’ in Māori, is fitting for this vineyard. New Zealand is a land of shared journeys and the winemakers aim to share their wine with the rest of the world. Tai Tira’s terroir is fed by the pristine waters of the Waihopai and Wairau Valleys, located on the South Island. This Sauvignon Blanc took its time to ripen, but with patience comes perfection. This wine delivers on all fronts. Freshly picked white flesh fruits, lime and elderflower give you a taste of sweet summer. Meanwhile, the palate is a breeze, with its crisp minerality. A perfect wine for a tomato tart, shellfish, or a fresh salad with goat cheese.

Marlborough
New Zealand
Marlborough is by far the most important wine region in New Zealand. At the northeast tip of the South Island, this dry, sunny region is home to over 500 estates and produces nearly 75% of New Zealand wine. Its warm days, cool nights and well drained alluvial soils create ideal conditions for aromatic wines with crystalline acidity.
This is where the Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc style that won over the world was born: vibrant, intensely fruity, with a herbaceous touch and saline minerality. While Sauvignon Blanc dominates, Marlborough also produces excellent Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Riesling, confirming its place as the international showcase of New Zealand wine.
