Whitehaven is one of Marlborough’s most consistent and celebrated producers — a benchmark for the region’s signature style. Crafted from 100% Marlborough-sourced Sauvignon Blanc grapes, the 2025 vintage is a triumph of precision and purity: piercing, electrifying, and unmistakably New Zealand. The Wine Advocate awarded it 93 points, calling it “excellent” — and it is easy to see why. This is Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc at its most vivid and expressive.
Brilliant pale straw in color. The nose is intense and aromatic with juicy lemon, green apple, lemongrass, passion fruit, and a bracing saline minerality. On the palate, it is pure and pristine — focused and fruit-forward with pineapple husk, crushed chalk, and a crisp herbaceous edge. The acidity is electric, the finish long and clean. Balanced, seductive, and built to refresh.
Wine Advocate 93 — "Piercing and intense… pure and pristine, focused and saline. The acidity is like a bell tolling on a cold morning. It’s excellent." • James Suckling 90 — "Very pretty and balanced… flavorful and seductive." (Vintage 2025).
93 points, Marlborough’s finest expression, and an honest price — Whitehaven is the Sauvignon Blanc you reach for first.
