A few years in bottle have lovingly massaged the edges of this wine and it is showing in a fantastic place

There are the trademark botanical hallmarks of ripe Sauvignon Blanc; bergamot, lavender and rosemary, guava and citrus fruit and then a glimpse of delicate secondary notes of beeswax and honey and the faintest whiff of Germanic riesling-esque petroleum

 

----ABOUT THE PRODUCER----

After spending a decade making wine in the Cahors region of South-West France, as well
as collectively working forty plus vintages across nine different countries; Simon and Lauren have returned back to New Zealand to make wine under their own label ‘A Thousand Gods’. Their aim is to make wines they can call their own, both representative of site, yet in their own way, surprisingly unique.

Working closely with their biodynamic grower in the Waihopai Valley of Marlborough, meticulously farmed grapes are hand-picked and undergo wild fermentation. No additions, fining or filtration processes are used. Instead, thoughtful guidance into becoming wines that are generous and approachable, yet
also complex and cellar-worthy.
