It certainly pays to have a full-time wine sleuth on the trail of great deals in Australia and New Zealand. This premium estate classic comes from a superb winery at a great price. To secure it, all we had to do was bottle it under our own label.
We're sorry, this wine is sold out.
But don't worry, you'll find plenty more handpicked wines here.

The Wine
Sunday Bay is a classic Kiwi Sauvignon from Marlborough – top region for this grape – and a terrific, environmentally aware estate, that's well known and highly regarded at home and internationally. In fact one of its Sauvignons was awarded Best New Zealand Sauvignon at the International Wine Challenge 2012. We can't name them because Sunday Bay is a great value exclusive just for us. Picking grapes in the cool temperatures of the night captures maximum fruit and freshness, while a little ageing on lees (the natural residue of fermentation) adds to the flavours of this vibrant, gooseberry and tropical fruit scented white. Spicy seafood dishes are a favourite partner with this lively Sauvignon Blanc but it’s also great with salmon quiche.

Smells fresh and zesty and tastes just as good with citrus and fruity overtones
