One of the true Marlborough pioneers, the Scott Family made its first Sauvignon in 1975. As it has evolved, the winery kept its focus on making distinctive, easily recognizable New Zealand Sauvignons. With its aggressive, razor sharp aroma of lime, grapefruit and tropical fruit, it sets you up for its brisk, citrus-driven herbal flavors and crisp finish. But on the palate, it has just enough fleshy texture to tone down the acidity and contribute to a refreshing finish.
