KONO Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough
Marlborough’s free-draining, alluvial loams over gravelly subsoils provide ideal growing conditions for our KONO Sauvignon Blanc.
With the abundant sunshine, cool nights and a long growing season in this region, this wine is vibrant with intense citrus and gooseberry flavours and notes of capsicum and passionfruit.
A blend of fruits from the Awatere, Waihopai, and Lower Wairau Valleys gives this Sauvignon Blanc the classic Marlborough fruit burst with great palate weight and a clean, acid finish.
Food Matching
This wine is wonderful with NZ fish and all types of seafood; especially KONO Marlborough greenshell mussels. Try the wine alongside summer salads and poultry dishes.
