Main Divide Sauvignon Blanc 2021
An intense, complex, charismatic bouquet with a wild, sauvage, Semillon-like seam, hints of passionfruit flower, lemon verbena and a smoky, flinty note. A refreshing palate with peachy fruit, good concentration and crisp, stone sucking acidity. Very drinkable.

Main Divide Sauvignon Blanc 2021
Punchy and instantly appealing, the wine shows feijoa, kiwifruit, Gala apple and lemon zest aromas on the nose, leading to a splendidly flavoursome palate offering excellent fruit vibrancy and intensity. Upfront and deliciously appealing.

Main Divide Sauvignon Blanc 2021
Aromas of juicy fleshy white orchard fruits, red apple then mango-passion, citrus fruits and slightly understated fresh herbs layer with touch of sage and basil. Juicy, fleshy and lively on the palate with electric acidity carrying flavour and crispness, a quiet mineral layer then fresh herbs and core of fruit. Well-made and ready to drink
