Catalina Sounds is a truly classic New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc!

Misha's Vineyard The Starlet Sauvignon Blanc
MISHA'S VINEYARD The Starlet Sauvignon Blanc, Central Otago Mishas Vineyard is located on a spectacular site in New Zealand on the edge of Lake Dunstan in the Bendigo sub-region of Central Otago. The sun-drenched, north-west facing terraces of the 57 hectare estate provide optimal conditions for producing world-class Pinot Gris. A no compromise philosophy requires exacting viticulture regimes, hand-picking, and considerate winemaking methodologies. The fruit for this wine is hand-picked and whole bunch pressed. The free run and early press portion (70%) is handled anaerobically settled, racked, inoculated and then cool fermented in stainless steel without air contact. The remaining juice portion is handled more oxidatively and spends time in older French oak barrels where it goes through a spontaneous ferment. Blending the two components contributes complexity to both the flavour and texture of the finished wine, which typically shows exotically fragrant aromas of elderflower, lime and passionfruit and a rounded palate with tropical fruits and pineapple notes balanced by fresh citrus acidity.
Zephyr Sauvignon Blanc
Zephyr Sauvignon Blanc flaunts a fantastic pale green colour, very much like a lime leaf. The nose of this wine is pure, verve and punchy with aromas of snow pea, white grapefruit and coriander. The fleshy palate features flavours of lemongrass and rock melon, with lemonade acidity evident throughout. The savoury structure adds to the lengthy finish. This aromatic wine is lovely with scallops, rock cod, soft goat cheese, or prosciutto.
