2024 Rapaura Springs Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc Reserve

A concentrated and refined Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough, with extra depth and structure compared to the classic cuvée.

The Reserve selection is sourced from carefully selected parcels in Marlborough, where cool nights and sunny days create aromatic intensity and vibrant acidity. Vinification focuses on fruit purity, with controlled fermentation in stainless steel to preserve the fresh, expressive style. The Reserve is distinguished by its extra concentration and length.

The 2024 vintage

2024 saw stable growing conditions, optimal ripening, and preservation of natural freshness. The grapes were harvested at the moment of perfect aromatic expression. The result is a wine with tension, intensity, and balance.

Color, smell and taste

In the glass, the wine displays a bright, light yellow color with greenish reflections. The nose opens with citrus, passion fruit, and lime, complemented by notes of freshly mown grass and subtle spice. On the palate, the wine is taut and energetic, with vibrant acidity and a concentrated core of tropical fruit. The finish is long, fresh, and mineral, with clear precision.

Sommy Pairing Beschrijving Frisse, levendige smaken van limoen, groene appel, passievrucht en een kruidige ondertoon van vers gemaaid gras bepalen dit Sauvignon Blanc Reserve, met een strakke zuurgraad en een geconcentreerde, minerale afdronk. Daardoor sluit de wijn prachtig aan bij witte vis, schelp- en schaaldieren, sushi en salade: de zuren snijden door vetheid en versterken delicate vissmaken zonder ze te overheersen, terwijl de kruidigheid en het fruit zorg dragen voor fris contrast. Kies voor lichte bereidingen zoals gegrilde of gepocheerde vis, koud gerookte zalm, gestoomde mosselen of een citrusdressing bij salade om de harmonie met de wijn extra te accentueren.

Family-owned Rapaura Springs was founded in 2005 and is among the top 10 largest wineries in Marlborough. Purity and purity is what Rapaura Springs stands for. The water used for the vines comes from the water source Rapaura Spring, far away from the vineyards. This crystal clear and pure water from the Wairau River flows through the rocks and travels for 6 months to reach the vineyards. The word 'Rapaura' therefore means: running water. Within the New Zealand winery there is a lot of attention to detail and the makers strive to make the most exceptional, pure and pure wines. The wines are sustainably produced and have received critical acclaim from Harold Hammersma and Hubrecht Duijker, among others, and Sauvignon Blanc has been voted Worlds best Sauvignon Blanc at the 2015 International Spirit and Wine competition in London.
