Crisp acidity keeps everything lively, while the finish stays clean, refreshing and nicely persistent. Misty Cove sources the fruit from vineyards across the Wairau and Waihopai Valleys, giving this a good snapshot of classic Marlborough Sauvignon character without becoming overly green or aggressive. A smart bottle for seafood, goat cheese salads or a properly relaxed serving of fish and chips by the water.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat the winery says:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2025 Estate Sauvignon Blanc is grown across Misty Cove's vineyards in the Wairau and Waihopai Valleys on Marlborough's free-draining river terraces. The fruit was hand-harvested in the cool of the morning, gently pressed and cool-fermented in stainless steel to retain freshness and aromatic character, then fined and filtered before bottling. The winery describes citrus zest, cut grass, passionfruit, guava and lemongrass, carried by crisp acidity to a clean, refreshing finish.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat the experts say:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSam Kim, Wine Orbit, 93\/100 and 5 Stars (2025 Vintage)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e“Fabulously fruited and instantly appealing, the wine exhibits aromas of feijoa, kiwifruit, crunchy apple, and lime peel.
