Beyond the label

Sancerre in France may be Sauvignon Blanc’s spiritual home, but for modern vibrancy, Marlborough, New Zealand is the new “Sauvignon Central.” And nobody does it better than Dr. John Forrest—a pioneer of the Golden Mile (Marlborough’s original and best vineyard strip).

Here’s top critic Huon Hooke on John’s regular Sauvignon: “From one of New Zealand’s finest producers, this is about as good as Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc gets.” You’ll enjoy the exhilarating Stonewall Sauvignon Blanc he makes just for our customers.

Inspired by the striking ‘stone-walled’ entrance to John’s beautiful estate (built from the Wairau River stones that give Marlborough’s best wines their attractive mineral notes), this white offers plenty of inspiration in the glass. It boasts intense aromas and flavors of ripe passion fruit, refreshing citrus zest and black currant leaf.

The perfect partner for a spread of cheeses, fresh fish and sushi, crisp green salads and more. Be warned though: one sip (or bottle) may not be enough!
