Saint Clair Vicar's Choice Sauvignon Blanc

Sauvignon Blanc aus der Marlborough-Region im Norden der Südinsel Neuseelands: In der Weinwelt gilt das längst als Garant für höchsten Genuss. Wenn das Ganze dann noch aus dem Hause Saint Clair stammt, steht einem Fest für die Sinne nichts mehr im Wege. Auch der Saint Clair Vicar's Choice Sauvignon Blanc bietet eine traumhafte Fruchtintensität.

Das Bouquet des neuseeländischen Weißweins duftet herrlich frisch nach Passionsfrucht, Grapefruit und schwarzen Johannisbeeren. Dazu kommt eine leicht salzige, kalk-geprägte Mineralität.

Am Gaumen ist der blassgrüne Sauvignon Blanc trocken und knackig-frisch, mit pikanten Aromen von Stachelbeeren sowie von Passionsfrucht und Grapefruit. Feine Kräuternuancen und die salzige Mineralität leiten das lang anhaltende Finale ein.

Saint Clair Family Estate

Saint Clair Estate gilt als einer der Pioniere in der Weinregion Marlborough. Judy und Neal Ibbotson legten 1978 die ersten Weinberge an und versorgten zunächst einige Weingüter der Region mit Trauben. Doch schon bald reifte der Gedanke, aus den edlen Früchten selbst Wein herzustellen. Mit Hilfe von Winemaker Matt Thomson, der Erfahrungen in zahlreichen Weingütern in Bordeaux und Italien gesammelt hatte, verwirklichten sie diese Idee in den frühen 1990er Jahren. Schon bald wurden die Saint Clair Weine in nationalen und internationalen Verkostungen prämiert, u.a. auch vom bekanntesten US-Weinmagazin „Wine Spectator“.

Zu den größten Erfolgen zählt zweifellos die Auszeichnung als „Bester neuseeländischer Weinerzeuger des Jahres“, die Saint Clair Estate im Jahre 2005 anlässlich der International Wine und Spirits Cometition verliehen wurde.
