Small and Small Serious Sauvignon Blanc 2016 - Wolfie
About the wine
Seriously complex, full-flavoured Marlborough Sauvignon
- Thanks to your votes in The Crush, we got the funding to fulfil our winemaking dream and start our Serious Sauvignon project... our tongue-in-cheek name for our exploration of complex, full-flavoured Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc.
- Here in Marlborough, we've only been making wine for a generation and we know that many of the rules are still being written.
- Made from the same vines as our Sylvia Reserve but fermented and matured in old French casks, this wine has a beautiful texture with all the enticing flavours and aromas of Marlborough's Awatere Valley.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Bill & Claudia Small
- Husband and wife team Bill and Claudia went it alone thanks to Angel funding over a decade ago. Since then, they've gone on to become Naked legends.
- Using your Angel funding, the Smalls have built close relationships with grape growers ‘in the bits of Marlborough they love’ to make lovingly crafted gems from some of the best fruit going.
- With you behind them, your King and Queen of Marlborough have gone from strength to strength. You’re the reason they make some of the highest-rated Sauvignons in the whole of New Zealand. Kudos to you.
