Forget all you know about New Zealand's Sauvignon Blanc...

 

Te Koko is Cloudy Bay’s ambitious project to create a rival to the great wines of Burgundy and Sancerre. Using wild yeasts, subtle oak and ‘malo’ for texture, it’s a 94 point triumph. Aged for 3 years before release, it’s creamy, round and exotic.

Aromatically, Te Koko 2014 unfolds with a complex array of citrus and stone fruit, complemented by exotic floral notes on the finish. In 2014, the Sauvignon Blanc for Te Koko was sourced from some of our oldest vines across four distinguished vineyards producing grapes with high concentration and elegant, pure-fruited aromatics.
