Art Of Wine The Great Wave Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is a vibrant, intensely aromatic white wine produced in the world-renowned Marlborough region of New Zealand. Inspired by iconic artwork and the expressive nature of cool-climate winemaking, this vintage captures the dynamic energy and pristine purity for which Marlborough is celebrated. Sourced from premier vineyard sites across the Wairau and Awatere Valleys, it offers a refreshing, high-impact drinking experience brimming with tropical and herbaceous intensity.

Why You'll Love It

This wine stands out for its striking label design, electric acidity, and unmistakable regional authenticity. Crafted to deliver a wave of crisp fruit flavour, it blends expressive passionfruit and citrus notes with a lively, mouth-watering mineral streak. Its combination of vibrant aromatics, bright acidity, and clean finish makes it an irresistible option for lovers of classic, fruit-forward New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc.

Vineyard & Production

The grapes are harvested from selected vineyard parcels situated in Marlborough's sub-regions, benefiting from bright sunshine, cool maritime breezes, and significant day-to-night temperature swings that preserve natural acidity. Upon arrival at the winery, the fruit is gently pressed and fermented at cool temperatures in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks using selected yeast strains. This careful, minimal-intervention process ensures the natural fruit character and aromatic freshness are preserved to the highest degree prior to bottling.

Tasting Notes

In the glass, it reveals a pale straw colour with brilliant green reflections. The nose is punchy and expressive, bursting with lifted aromas of passionfruit, ripe grapefruit, and lime zest, alongside hints of fresh cut grass and lemongrass. On the palate, it is crisp, zesty, and medium-bodied, delivering layers of tropical fruit, crunchy green pepper, and vibrant citrus. A bright thread of mineral acidity guides the palate towards a long, clean, and thoroughly refreshing finish.

Perfect Pairings

With its lively acidity and aromatic intensity, this Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is an exceptional match for fresh seafood and green herbal dishes. It pairs magnificently with pan-seared scallops, grilled sea bass, oysters on the half shell, and garlic prawns. It is also an ideal companion for goat's cheese salads, asparagus tartlets, Thai green curry, and fresh summer salads.
