Squealing Pig Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough delivers classic New Zealand vibrancy with tropical fruit intensity and refreshing citrus character.
Appearance
Light straw with a subtle grassy green hue, crystal clear and inviting in the glass.
Aroma
Salivatingly crisp like a summer salad — the nose bursts with punchy lemongrass, kaffir lime, passionfruit, guava and freshly cut herbs.
Palate
Full of energy and refreshingly crisp, the palate delivers intense flavours of green pineapple and passionfruit. Tangy citrus notes provide excellent acidity, leading to a focused finish with delicious minerality and clean, lingering character.
Pairs With
Perfect alongside fresh seafood, particularly oysters, prawns and grilled fish. Excellent with goat’s cheese salads, Asian cuisine, or enjoyed as a refreshing aperitif on warm days.
Squealing Pig is a tale about a pig who wanted more from life than just his pig pen. Keen on wine, but not a fan of the boar that you get with it, he began his adventure in Marlborough in New Zealand before spreading his wings to Central Otago, and then over the ditch to Australia and other parts of the world.
Fruit sourced from vineyards near the Awatere River in Marlborough. Soils composed mainly of loose river gravels, giving the wine its distinct minerality. Grapes crushed and destemmed on arrival at the winery. After separating the lees, juice was cold fermented in stainless steel with selected yeasts to enhance flavours and aromas. Blended two months before bottling.
