Saint Clair, Marlborough, Barrique Sauvignon Blanc 2021 75cl

From Saint Clair in Marlborough, this 2021 Barrique Sauvignon Blanc offers a more layered expression of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. Barrel-aged in French oak, it brings added depth and texture while retaining the bright, mineral character associated with the variety.

The style is rich and perfumed, with a creamy texture balancing the wine’s natural acidity. Complex aromatics and subtle oak influence give it a more rounded profile, making it well suited to the table.
