About this wine
Awarded 95 points by Erin Larkin (Parker’s Wine Advocate) and 93 points by Cameron Douglas MS, Pegasus Bay Sauvignon Blanc is a vibrant and complex North Canterbury white wine delivering exceptional depth and finesse. Aromas of melon, guava, and passionfruit intertwine with green apple, honeysuckle, lemongrass, and a subtle wet river gravel minerality. The generous, textural palate is lifted by invigorating acidity, driving a long, racy finish. Extended skin contact enhances phenolic structure, adding layers of complexity. Perfect with fresh seafood, goat cheese, or herb-driven dishes.
