2025 Once Hidden Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough, New Zealand

The 2025 Once Hidden Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc presents a refined expression of the region’s hallmark style, shaped by a temperate growing season marked by warm daylight hours and pronounced diurnal shifts.

The bouquet opens with precise, lifted notes of lime blossom, passionfruit, and white peach, accented by subtle elderflower and a gentle herbal undertone characteristic of the Wairau and Awatere valleys.

The palate is focused and energetic, offering a harmonious balance of ripe citrus, tropical fruit, and finely etched minerality.

A firm line of acidity carries the wine through a long, crystalline finish. Best served at 48–52°F, it pairs elegantly with shellfish, chèvre, and delicately seasoned seafood preparations.
