A new vintage of Sauvignon Blanc marks the start of summer

Sacred Hill Wines has released its 2011 Sacred Hill Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. Brimming with crisp flavours this wine is set to be a summer favourite.
Marlborough has come up trumps this vintage, producing grapes of a luxurious quality. Sourced from a carefully selected range of quality fruit across the region, the 2011 Sauvignon Blanc is an aromatically resonant wine with supple texture, complex flavours and significant intensity.

The 2011 Sacred Hill Sauvignon Blanc presents itself with an intriguing medley of sweet tropical fruits reminiscent of passion fruit, mango and honey dew melon. These intensely fruity flavours flow onto the palate, and mingle with red capsicum and lemongrass to give a deliciously soft lingering finish.

‘’The Sauvignon Blancs are one of the undisputed highlights of the 2011 vintage. Marlborough has produced an intense wine with great length and persistence of flavour. These wines are some of the best produced in years and truly reflect the regions capacity to produce a world leading style of wine,” says Sacred Hill Senior Winemaker Tony Bish.

This wine is ready to drink now or can be cellared for up to three years.
The 2011 Sacred Hill Sauvignon Blanc is available at wine outlets nationwide. RRP $22.99
