About the wine
.
- Mike spent years filling a top New Zealand wineries shelves with numerous trophies. Problem was, he wanted to go it alone, fill his own shelves with sparkly gold. No problem we said - our angels will invest to help you do it. Bingo!
- This is his twist on a cross between New Zealand SB and the Loire. So whilst it is punchy with its lime and gooseberry fruits, it has quite a soft, but long finish and a very subtle kick to it.
- Any creamy pasta dish will lap this up and given the price, you can afford to go completely over the top with your order.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Mike Paterson
- Mike used to be the Head Winemaker at one of New Zealand's finest, most prestigious Sauvignon Blanc wineries.
- He loved the job, but he also loved the idea of fulfilling his life-long dream of going it alone. Only problem was, the financial equation was "beyond scary" (as Mike put it!)
- We funded Mike to go it alone on one tiny, simple, lovely condition: he makes you some absolute stunners in the wine department. With your backing, he’s been able to make some of the most consistently high-rated Sauvignons in the whole of New Zealand. Kudos to you.
