14.5%
0.75L
Intensity
An 18-month élevage on lees gives this Chardonnay a creamy quality ideal for accompanying fleshy fish like salmon.
More infoThis New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc was matured in French oak barrels for 18 months and can be appreciated in its youth, between 5 and 7 years. We particularly like it for its delicate bouquet marked by citrus (grapefruit and lemon) and flowers as well as for its texture, balanced between liveliness and suppleness, this being brought by its élevage on lees.

About the Producer Dog Point
Dog Point domain takes its name from the first colonies (for the most part from England) and the sheep that accompanied them, which were guarded by dogs. The lost dogs had a tendency to regroup on a hill overlooking the Wairau River which was nicknamed Dog Point. This name was therefore given to one of the first vineyards in the region (to the north of the South Island). This family owned domain is run by Matt Sutherland. One of New Zealand's leading domains!
