From the winery:
Sunshine Bay Sauvignon Blanc White Wine is the ideal choice for your next gathering. This vibrant wine pairs beautifully with seafood, chicken and light salads, making it versatile for various meals. Its crisp and refreshing taste is perfect for warm summer evenings or cozy nights in.
Intense lifted notes of ripe tropical fruits and citrus on the nose. Refined and elegant, displaying a finely textured palate with flavours of guava and stone fruit. Wonderfully expressive with a fresh, dry finish.
VINIFICATION: Sourced from our family vineyards across the Marlborough region, these grapes were harvested in the cool hours of the morning, gently pressed and fermented in stainless steel tanks. After blending the wine is left to settle on light lees before bottling. Tropical fruits and citrus on the nose. Refined and elegant, displaying a finely textured palate with flavours of guava and stone fruit. Wonderfully expressive with a fresh, dry finish.

The 2024 Sunshine Bay Sauvignon Blanc is loaded with grassy, herbaceous, gooseberry notes along with a little lime and guava. This is a 100% New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc aroma.
The wine tastes crisp with good depth and richness on the juicy fruit. This is full of flavor. It’s similar to nose with more tropical fruit notes and bit less grassiness in the mouth. I especially love the low residual sugar.
It ends crisp, dry and lip-smacking on long finish. This is much better than it deserves to be for just $8. If you like that truly distinctive New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc taste profile, you’ll love this wine.
