Product Description
The 2023 vintage ranked #41 on Wine Spectator's Top 100 of 2024, Whitehaven is a Sauvignon Blanc icon consistently punching above its weight.
92 pts (Cameron Douglas) · 91 pts (Wine Enthusiast) - Whitehaven Sauvignon Blanc 2024 is the definitive expression of Marlborough - AMW-certified, 100% stainless steel fermented at 12–16°C to lock in pure varietal character, then lees-aged two months for added texture and precision.
The nose opens with lifted grapefruit, white currants, crushed herbs, nettles and flint. The palate delivers passionfruit, white peach, lemongrass and citrus — concentrated yet elegant, with a saline, mouth-watering finish that keeps you reaching for the next sip. Wine Enthusiast calls it "lucid and bombastic — heady lime, lemongrass and pink grapefruit with a limey, dialled-up acidity".
