Mahi Sauvignon Blanc is a deeply flavoured and textured wine sourced from six different vineyards across New Zealand’s Marlborough region. The wine is packed with an array of tropical fruit, passionfruit, kiwi, lime and citrus fruit notes. It has a lovely creamy edge to it, beautiful texture and fantastic depth of flavour. A small proportion of the wine is aged in barrel fermented and around 3% Semillon is added to give added texture. Well worth the money.
Mahi was founded at the turn of the last century by Brian & Nicola Bricknell. Brian had worked for 15 years as a wine maker around the world, before returning to Marlborough to start his own project. Brian wanted to showcase, not only Marlborough’s regional characteristics, but also focus on unique, high quality, single vineyard plots. They now have eight individual vineyard sites which are planted with specific varieties to suit each plot. The resulting wines have an air of elegance, texture and complexity, which are utterly delicious.
