About The Wine

Our aim with this, our classic style of Sauvignon Blanc, is to put 100% effort into making a wine that silences the doubters and restores faith in this region and the amazing quality of the wines from here. This 2023 Sauvignon Blanc is a blend from two specially selected vineyards in two different subregions of Marlborough. One of the vineyards are in the upper Awatere Valley—Shamrock—and the second is our certified organic TWR home block, here in Renwick.

The growing conditions in the Awatere are characterised by cooler temperatures and slower ripening than in the Wairau, which is all important for flavour development and ripe acidity. The wines from this sub-region tend to be more restrained in their youth but have great texture, structure and longevity. Our home block, the warmer days of the Wairau Valley and a bigger diurnal range. These climatic factors, combined with our clay loam soil here, results in wines which have great texture and fleshiness and are characterised by riper tropical notes with stone-fruit with a lovely line of minerality.

Review

"Fresh and vibrant sauvignon blanc with very expressive, generous flavours of gooseberry, citrus and cucumber along with juicy layers of accessible complexity in the form of cherry tomatoes, elderflower and warm, turned earth. The delicious, mouthfilling flavours cascade over the palate right to the zesty, fruit-driven yet dry finish. Unpretentious and charming wine for enjoying over the next couple of years."

93 points. Stephen Wong, The Real Review Aug 2025



About Te Whare Ra

Te Whare Ra (TWR) is a small Marlborough vineyard in Renwick, planted in 1979 and owned by winemakers Anna and Jason Flowerday since 2003. The 11-hectare property uses organic and biodynamic practices with low yields, handpicked fruit, and minimal-intervention winemaking.

TWR has earned elite status for its aromatic wines, while exceptional Syrah and Pinot Noir showcase Marlborough's red wine potential. In 2014, the Flowerdays began labeling single-site wines with their BioGro New Zealand vineyard designation number (SV5182), representing over a decade of work achieving organic certification and their commitment to provenance, organic farming, and world-class Marlborough wines.
