Small and Small Serious Sauvignon Blanc 2019 - Daniel
About the wine
Bill and Claudia's "most avant garde wine ever"
-
For the past 4 years, we’ve slipped Bill and Claudia a bit of extra Angel funding and challenged them to go pull out all the stops to make us some small batch Kiwi Savs like no one had ever tasted.
-
Bill & Claudia got their geek on with this one, using a technique usually reserved for lighter reds like Beaujolais. The grapes are handpicked and stored in a way that encourages the fermentation to actually start inside the grapes - to give the wine its unique flavour.
-
They dubbed their Daniel Sauvignon “their most avant garde wine ever” and we couldn’t agree more. It’s fuller and more concentrated than your average Marlborough Sauvignon - with rich tropical flavours and a refined dry finish.

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.
