Winemakers James Healy and Ivan Sutherland add creamy bells and whistles to this wine by fermenting their Sauvignon Blanc grapes in oak barrels to soften savvy’s crisp green flavors – rather than adding a wood-derived taste. The result is an addictively tasty new take on Marlborough savvy. Restrained funk aromas, citrus notes, exotic fruits and floral tones. Nutty flavors give the palate weight and texture. Pair with fish (especially salmon), poultry, soft white cheeses.
