Awatere Valley, Marlborough, South Island, New ZealandRetasted about a year later, the '22 Tohu SB hasn’t changed much. Bright acidity and a screwcap have given youth to this all Marlborough, Awatere Valley white that is awash in citrus blossoms and scents of lemongrass and passionfruit. A bright citrus undercurrent steadies a riper, juicy, pink grapefruit and a saline mineral finish. The Awatere Valley is unique among Marlborough sub-regions, as it is drier and windier than most, which leads to longer growing seasons and riper fruit. It is a fine representative of the Kiwi sauvignon upper class and the first Maori-owned winery. Oysters anyone?Tasted: 22 March 2024Tasted by: Prices:

Awatere Valley, Marlborough, South Island, New ZealandTohu is sourced entirely from vineyards in Marlborough’s Awatere Valley and always surprises with its dry, aromatic lemongrass and passionfruit. A fresh grassy, citrus undercurrent keeps it moving along the palate with a more ripe, juicy, pink grapefruit and a saline mineral finish. The Awatere Valley is more remarkable, drier, and windier than other sub-regions of Marlborough, leading to an even longer growing season and a ripeness few can claim. A fine representative of the Kiwi sauvignon upper class.Tasted: 14 March 2023Tasted by: Prices:
