The Ned Sauvignon Blanc 2025
Introduction
The Ned Sauvignon Blanc is produced in the Marlborough region of New Zealand, with fruit primarily sourced from the Waihopai River Vineyard on the southern side of the Wairau Valley. The brand was launched in 2003 by Brent Marris, a Marlborough native whose family estate, Marisco Vineyards, is situated on the banks of the Waihopai River. The label's winemaking philosophy, captured by the ethos 'Young At Heart', emphasizes grassroots winemaking that aims to preserve the vibrant energy and aromatic purity of the fruit.
Wine Description
This wine typically displays a clear pale straw or lemon colour with light green-gold highlights. The sensory profile is punchy and explosive, featuring aromas of lemon and lime citrus, passion fruit, gooseberry, and pink grapefruit, often underpinned by a subtle mineral note of warm river stones. On the palate, it is crisp and fruit-focused with a fleshy mid-palate that reveals flavours of tropical fruits, crisp green apple, and white grapefruit. The finish is long and zesty, driven by a seam of lively Marlborough acidity. This wine is 100% Sauvignon Blanc and typically has an ABV of 13%. It is produced using sustainable practices and is Vegan Certified.
