Swift Sure Sauvignon Blanc 2024

Swiftsure Sauvignon Blanc 2024 is crafted from carefully selected vineyards in Marlborough, with the majority of fruit sourced from the Southern Coast Vineyard near the Kaikoura Ranges. This site benefits from a unique microclimate influenced by coastal breezes, contributing fresh herbaceous and citrus qualities. Additional fruit from the Waihopai Valley adds textural richness and depth. The combination of these sites allows for complexity and balance typical of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc.

The grapes were machine-harvested at optimal ripeness and swiftly transported to the winery to preserve freshness and aromatic intensity. The wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures to retain purity of fruit and vibrant acidity. No oak influence is used, ensuring a clean, crisp profile.

In the glass, the 2024 vintage displays aromas of tropical fruits such as passionfruit and guava, alongside grilled lime zest and fresh herb notes. The palate is medium-bodied with juicy fruit concentration, balanced by bright acidity and subtle mineral undertones drawn from the terroir. The finish is crisp and persistent, making for a lively and refreshing experience.

Swiftsure Sauvignon Blanc 2024 pairs excellently with shellfish, goat’s cheese, fresh salads, and light Asian dishes. Its vibrant acidity and textural complexity also make it well suited for both casual drinking and food pairing.
