White WineAn excellent value Chilean Sauvignon Blanc that ticks all the flavour boxes. An array of mouth-watering citrus aromas that recall grapefruit and limes are underpinned by vibrant herbaceous characters. Bright refreshing acidity and a hint of salty minerality on the long finish.

The vineyard for this wine’s fruit is located in Molina in the Curicó Valley at an altitude of 243 metres. It is situated on the 35th Parallel South, between the Andes Mountains and the cool Pacific Ocean. The warm dry days and cold nights encourage a long growing season. Intense sunshine is tempered by cooling sea breezes, allowing the grapes to achieve outstanding fruit aromas and exceptional colour concentration. Working with a model of micro viticulture, each plot, of no more than half a hectare, is identified according to its terroir and microclimate and planted accordingly. Grapes are subjected to specific pruning, irrigation, canopy management and harvesting, which results in grapes of optimum quality and flavour.
White WineA bright, crisp Sauvignon Blanc from Chile with lively aromas of green apple and floral notes complemented by a refreshing dry finish.
Los Boldos has 170 hectares of vineyards which benefit from a Mediterranean climate. The clear, bright skies during the summer and the high diurnal temperature range are ideal for growing fruit that maintains fresh acidity whilst ripening to perfection. The nearby Cachapoal river also moderates temperatures, while stony alluvial soils in the vineyard ensure low yields. Los Boldos makes wine exclusively from their own vineyards, therefore controlling everything from grape to bottle.

The grapes are grown in the Lomas de Leyda vineyard, situated in the Leyda Valley. The climate is moderated by the cooling influence of the Pacific Ocean and summer coastal fogs which last until midday. This effect extends the ripening period, ensuring slow ripening and the development of intense and very fresh flavours and aromas. Average rainfall in the Leyda Valley is 250 millimetres. The soil is finely textured and of low fertility. The upper layer is thin loamy clay, with a layer of cracked clay over decomposed granite, which has a varied mineral structure. The valley has gentle slopes with areas exposed to differing levels of sunlight exposure.

White WineAstrolabe’s Province Sauvignon is a vibrant, minerally Marlborough Sauvignon and one of the best Kiwi Sauvignon Blancs available today.
Fruit for the Province Sauvignon was grown in vineyards located in the Awatere Valley sub-region of Marlborough. It was harvested in cool evening conditions to preserve freshness and vitality and lightly pressed with minimal skin contact to let the pure juice do the talking.

White WineOne of the best Chilean Sauvignon Blanc’s made. Intense aromas of wild mint, grapefruit and white currant leap out of the glass, a fresh, concentrated and well-balanced Sauvignon with a persistent finish.
The grapes are sourced from two vineyards: Alluvia Vineyard, which is located in Gualtallary, Tupungato, Uco Valley, at 1,350 metres above sea level; and the Los Cerezos Vineyard which is located in the Cordon del Plata Mountains, Tupungato, Uco Valley, at 1,000 metres above sea level. The climate typically presents warm days and cool nights with an average temperature variation of 14°C. It is this diurnal temperature variation, which extends the ripening period, balances the crisp acidity while producing complex flavours in the grapes. The average annual rainfall is low at 280mm. At Doña Paula, the vineyards have always been managed using sustainable agriculture practices. The combination of loamy, sandy, rocky and well-drained soils with an exhaustive selection of the best French clones, result in this premium example of Sauvignon Blanc.
White WineA great example of this unusual appellation of just 100 or so hectares, which was only granted AC status in 2002. Unlike most of the Loire’s better-known regions, several different varieties (white and red) are permitted here, with Sebastien Vaillant (who first honed his skills in nearby Quincy) using a sizeable proportion of Chardonnay to flesh out his Sauvignon Blanc. The Domaine has 24 hectares mostly on the same clay and flint soils which extend eastwards to Pouilly-Fume and Sancerre, although the Chardonnay is grown on sandier lime soils.
White WineThis expressive Sauvignon Blanc is fresh and bright, brimming with grapefruit and passionfruit flavours complemented by herbaceous notes. Vibrant and beautifully balanced with a moreish texture and an elegant mineral note on the finish. Reminiscent of a good Sancerre.
White WineThe Yealands Seaview Vineyard in the Awatere Valley is one of New Zealand’s most coastal vineyards. Breath-taking vistas of rolling hills and wild coastline define the Yealands wines. The strong offshore winds encourage the grapes to grow small with thickened skins and wonderfully concentrated characteristics.
Bouquet: Shows pure fruit flavours of passionfruit, blackcurrant leaf, fresh herbs layered with bright citrus notes.
Palate: The palate is textured and elegant, with the distinctive mineral finish that our Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc is renowned for.
Food Match: Enjoy as an aperitif, or with freshly shucked oysters, prawns, green lip mussels and clams. Also matches brilliantly with a goats cheese salad.
Dietary: Suitable for vegetarians, vegans and a gluten-free diet.
Cellaring: Enjoy now, or cellar 2-4 years.
White WineLocated in Sauternes, on one of the greatest white wine terroirs in France. This wine has an enamouring yellow colour, with green reflections. The nose is aromatically complex revealing fragrances of exotic white fruits, citrus aromas and subtle floral notes. The nose is the perfect antecedent to what is tasted. There are touches of fresh lemons and exotic fruits (mangoes, lychees). The salinity of Lune d’Argent 2015 is noticed thanks to the finish. This wine is a clever companionship between the concentration of white fruits flavours and a refreshing minerality. An incredible wine for the money.
