Stoney river wines represent the very best of new zealand. Like our beautiful rivers, these wines are attractive, pure and inviting. Sourced from our own gisborne vineyards, this elegant and easily approachable sauvignon blanc is softer and more refined than its ‘zestier’ marlborough counterpart. Gisborne’s warmer climate, coastal influence and fertile soils enable us to produce a softer, more delicate style of sauvignon blanc with layers of ripe fruit and subtle savoury nuances. "youthfully charming and attractively fruited, the wine shows apricot, rockmelon, green apple and citrus peel aromas on the nose. It's equally appealing on the palate, displaying ripe fruit intensity backed by bright acidity, offering excellent drinking." - sam kim, wine orbit 4.5*
