Invivo X SJP Sauvignon Blanc 2025

Invivo X SJP Sauvignon Blanc is the flagship of Sarah Jessica Parker and Invivo's long-running collaboration, sourced from Marlborough vineyards and shaped through the trio's annual blending sessions with co-founders Tim Lightbourne and Rob Cameron. A touch of skin contact, later harvesting and time in French oak barriques and hogsheads give the label's style more texture than a typical sauvignon blanc, without losing the variety's signature zip. The 2025 release shows a grassy, lightly candied character, with lemon drops, tarragon and citrus leaves on the nose, leading into a light to medium bodied palate of white currant and citrus blossom carried by bright, zippy acidity. It is a more restrained, elegant expression from a label better known for richer vintages, and drinks beautifully now.

What the winery says:

Invivo describes Sauvignon Blanc as the wine at the heart of its collaboration with Sarah Jessica Parker, crafted from Marlborough fruit including the Awatere Valley and blended together by SJP and Invivo co-founders Tim Lightbourne and Rob Cameron during an annual three-hour tasting and blending session. The style leans on skin contact, later picking and time in French barriques and hogsheads to build texture and a smooth mouthfeel alongside the variety's natural freshness. Invivo notes the label has earned more than sixty gold medals and 90-plus point scores since 2019, including two placings in Wine Spectator's Top 100 Wines of the World.
