WINEMAKER’S NOTE
Made from grapes of our own vineyards in Gladstone. 100% destemmed grapes. Cool fermented in stainless steel tanks with lees contact.

TASTING NOTE
Pale light green tint. Intense passion fruit and figues with a hint of gooseberry, elderberry and lime flavours. The palate has a vibrant acidity, complex body with a lively character. Lingering with a hint of tropical fruit.

Johner Estate Gladstone Sauvignon Blanc 2006
($20) Gold
An elegant expression of the Wairarapa half-way savvy combining the best of the sweaty, tart Marlborough style and the softly tropical Hawkes Bay style.
