Hunky Dory Sauvignon Blanc 2023 750ml

ORGANIC, VEGAN

Claire and Mike Allan were drawn to Marlborough by the potential for intense fruit flavors and the promise of rounded, elegant wines.  They bought the land in 1990 and started making wine as Huia in 1996.

At Huia, the creation of good wine and a commitment to the environment go hand in hand. The result is elegant, hand crafted fully organic & biodynamic wines that go to help define the potential of Marlborough. 

To expand their offerings and create a more "intro" priced Marlborough label, Claire & Mike created Hunky Dory- a blend of estate and purchased fruit (all certified organic) designed to make for easy, accessible and delicious drinking.

Sauvignon Blanc

The Sauvignon Blanc grapes are sourced primarily from three vineyard sites. The Rapaura vineyard provides richly flavoured Sauvignon Blanc grapes that reveal a broad expression of tropical, passionfruit and guava characteristics.  From the StrawLodge vineyard on the West Coast road where the fruit flavors are softer producing luscious lemon and lime acidity. And finally the Anderlane vineyard, that is located between the other two sites and brings the quintessential gooseberry and fine acidity of this area.

Hunky Dory Sauvignon Blanc is succulent, offering tropical fruit notes packed with fresh gooseberry and lime flavours. This wine has a full flavored lingering finish and is designed to meet expectations of a true Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc .
