Grassy goodness bursts forth from the glass in this New Zealand white made from Sauvignon Blanc grapes. Clean and crisp that refreshes the palate for many dishes. Lots of mouth-watering acidity for seafood or shellfish.

Sauvignon Blanc food pairings: barbecued prawns marinated in chilli powder and lime juice.

Reviews and Ratings

Mahi (2015) is a New Zealand, South Island Sauvignon Blanc with fresh cut grass on the nose, fresh herbs and gooseberry. Refreshing with bracing acidity, this is a fantastic wine to pair with any grilled shellfish dish. It's crisp and clean and will cut through most any rich sauce that might accompany a seafood dish as well. Good depth of flavour and length on the finish. The Sauvignon Blanc wine grape for this wine were sourced from several vineyards and the wine partially fermented with wild yeasts, a portion of which fermented in barrel. - Community Wine Reviews
