Stoneleigh Latitude Sauvignon Blanc 2024

Stoneleigh Latitude Sauvignon Blanc is sourced from the Golden Mile along Rapaura Road, where ancient sunstones radiate extra warmth into the vines. The 2024 vintage took home gold at both the New Zealand International Wine Show and the Marlborough Wine Show, and it's easy to see why: ripe passionfruit, grapefruit and guava aromas lead into a weighty, textural palate of tropical fruit, honeydew melon and grapefruit zest, all underpinned by a clean, flinty stone minerality. The finish is long, concentrated and complex, with real presence for a Marlborough sauvignon. Serve lightly chilled with fresh seafood, warm chicken salad or off the barbecue.
