Totara Sauvignon Blanc
Description
Totara is a joint-venture between Opici Wines and Endeavour Vineyards of Marlborough, New Zealand. Our two companies came together in order to create award-winning wines with unsurpassed quality, packaging, and value for the US market. Alan Peters-Oswald, formerly at at Cloudy Bay Vineyards, was brought on board as winemaker to lend his genius. In New Zealand, the Totara tree is a celebrated and revered part of the country’s history. Indigenous Maori tribes would use the giant trees to build dwellings, boats, tools, and weapons. A Totara tree can grow to over 100 feet, and live for 1,000 years.
Tasting Notes
Bright yellow in the glass, with hints of green at the core. This wine is punchy and aromatic on the nose showing notes of lemon, passion fruit, and honeydew melon. Refreshingly lively on the palate, you will discover a core of rich citrus, stone fruit, and a mouth-watering minerality. Drinks wonderfully for 2-3 years from vintage. Pairs with all seafood dishes, salads, goat cheese, and spicy Thai or Indian Food.
ABV
13%
