Description

In a little-known valley in the south of the Marlborough region lies Kekerengu Coast, an untouched, unique valley of wild beauty hidden between ageless mountains and the sea. The soil is stony and rough, with veins of limestone carried by forgotten glaciers. The morning mist and the wind ensure the grapes develop slower than in other places — perfect for cool-climate winemaking. Unlike traditional Sauvignon Blanc, Allan Scott Kekerengu gets better with age. As it matures a gentle mist gathers within—forsaking clarity for flavor. Fresh sea breezes from the nearby beach adds a gentle saltiness to the grapes, which can be tasted from the glass.

Tasting Notes

Fresh, zesty, juicy and full, the wine shows ripe tropical fruit, a flinty palate and finishes with mouthwatering, crisp, sea-salted herbaceousness.
