Saint Clair Pioneer Block 1 Foundation Sauvignon Blanc 2024 (6 Bottles) Wairau

Saint Clair Pioneer Block 1 Foundation Sauvignon Blanc 2023 – crafted by Stewart Maclennan in Marlborough’s Lower Wairau Valley (Dillons Point) from a single, revered block – is pale with green highlights. The nose reveals layered passionfruit, blackcurrant and a striking flint note. On the palate, generous tropical fruits are finely balanced by a chalky texture, saline minerality and bright acidity. A powerful yet refined expression, this wine carries structure and tension, culminating in a long, saline-tinged finish. Named No. 1 New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc by Cuisine magazine (5 Stars) in 2021, it remains a benchmark of regional excellence.
