Description

The Te Muna Road site in Martinborough is a world away from the tropical punch of Marlborough. It’s all about those old stony terraces, and the 2025 release captures that leaner, more mineral profile perfectly.

It’s a bright and crunchy wine that leads with fresh lime and grapefruit. There’s a distinct flinty, saline edge to the fruit that makes it feel a bit more grown-up and precise. Instead of being a fruit bomb, it has a lovely savoury zip and a long, clean finish that keeps you coming back.

This is a polished, high-energy white that has the structure to handle proper food but enough freshness to stand alone. A super reliable release that shows exactly why this vineyard is considered a benchmark for the style.

93 points - "Good with its depth and concentration, a slick to texture, a tensile core of lime and saline minerality. Faint tropical fruits, cut grass, cucumber in mineral water, a lash of passionfruit and lemongrass in there, too. Lots of flavour and freshness, is the gist, and the drinkability is set to charm." - Mike Bennie (Halliday Wine Companion)

93 points - "A restrained and complex sauvignon blanc with subtle layers of green apple, olive leaf, fresh herbs, tomato stalk and wet stone all seamlessly melding into each other across the mid-weight, dry palate. Clearly still youthful with a fine line of saline acidity running throughout, this will come into its own in the coming months and provide refreshing drinking for a year or two before turning complex and contemplative." - Stephen Wong MW (The Real Review)

Customer Reviews

Grown on the lower
terraces of Te Muna Road, this is a wine of remarkable texture and layered complexity. Martinborough’s cooler climate delivers lifted aromatics and a fine, steely minerality, while the rocky soils create intensity of the fruit.

No, all prices are set at the full discounted dozen rate already.

Most wine retailers list at a single-bottle price and then discount 10–15% when you buy six or twelve. We've taken the opposite approach. Since the overwhelming majority of our orders are already 6 bottles or more, our list price is set for the case buyer from the start. There's no inflated single-bottle price to discount down from.

What that means for you:

- One price, same for everyone — no minimum to hit to unlock the best rate
- No mixed-six gymnastics to qualify for a discount
- Our single-bottle price is typically at or below a traditional retailer's by-the-dozen rate

Put simply: the box discount is already baked into the price.

**And if you find it cheaper elsewhere?** Let us know. If the same wine is available at a lower price at another retailer (including at their mixed-six or by-the-dozen rate) we're happy to match it.

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
