$15.00Price
Wine Tasting Notes Fire Road's 2025 Sauvignon Blanc pours pale straw with green glints and leaps from the glass with snow pea, fresh herbs, melon and guava. Light-bodied and refreshing, it delivers classic Marlborough passion fruit, gooseberry and grapefruit, threaded with a gentle herbal note. The finish is long and zesty, ideal with seafood, roast chicken or crisp summer salads. Winery/Producer Highlights Fire Road — Fire Road takes its name from Marlborough's worst-ever wildfire, which swept across 6,000 hectares on Boxing Day 2000 and threatened the town of Blenheim. The same hot, dry, sunny conditions that fueled the blaze help the brand's vineyards ripen intensely flavored Sauvignon Blanc. Fruit from several Marlborough subregions, including the Wairau and Awatere valleys, is pressed with minimal skin contact and cool-fermented in stainless steel to preserve its zing. Descriptive Words Zesty, Tropical, Herbal, Refreshing, Vibrant
