The Wine
Herbal aromas, intense lemon and kiwi fruit and classical elegance – Tikohi is unmistakably top drawer Kiwi Sauvignon. It comes from Marlborough’s ‘Golden Mile’ – home to the region’s top wineries, including Cloudy Bay. Back in 1978 Phil and Chris Rose were pioneers in planting vines in this now famous area, close to the Wairau River. They could see straight away that its free draining stony soil was perfect for growing vines, keeping them thirsty and ensuring great flavour concentration and mineral complexity. They pick the grapes by hand, then ferment them in small batches and combine the best cuvées to produce a wine that can match the top names without the price tag. Enjoy by itself or partner with salmon, spicy noodles or shellfish.
"Lovely, zingy flavours on the palate – as good as many a Sancerre at twice the price!"
