Rich, concentrated and accessible wine with a mix of stone fruits, red capsicum, lemon grass and nutty yeast lees. Texturally exciting Sauvignon Blanc with good weight and an impressive length. Stylish and rather complex wine.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, October 2012

The 2011 Sauvignon Blanc gives notes of pink grapefruit, apples and orange blossoms with suggestions of sulphides and ginger. The medium-bodied palate lends a pleasant touch of silkiness to the texture, with crisp acid supporting the elegant fruit, and finishing long. Drinking now, it should remain good to 2016+. -Lisa Perrotti-Brown

Complex on the nose and richly textured in the mouth, this wine delivers it all. Hints of struck flint and wild onion accent grapefruit aromas, while the flavors range easily from pink grapefruit and red currant to delicate herb shadings. It's full without being too full, with a potent yet refreshing finish that seemingly lingers forever. --Joe Czerwinski

This distinctive white features a whiff of toasted popcorn kernel, giving way to a juicy mouthful of lemon, lime, melon and mineral flavors and bright acidity. Drink now. -MW

About Winery

Dog Point Vineyard combines the considerable wine-growing experience of Ivan and Margaret Sutherland and James and Wendy Healy.

The name Dog Point dates from the earliest European settlement of Marlborough and the introduction of sheep to the district. "These were days of few fences, of boundary riders and boundary keeping dogs".Shepherds' dogs sometimes became lost or wandered off and eventually bred into a marauding pack which attacked local flocks.Their home was a tussock and scrub covered hill, overlooking the Wairau Plains, designated by the early settlers as Dog Point.
