A soft, rounded Sauvignon Blanc with lush fruit. Pencarrow is the second-tier label of Palliser Estate, but this is a satisfying wine in its own right. More openly accessible, and if anything more up-front in flavour.

product description
Pencarrow Sauvignon Blanc 2023
Reviews
Cameron Douglas MS: 90/100. A distinctive bouquet with fresh apple and citrus, tropical fruits with a hay and fresh herb qualities. Crisp, firm and just dry as the wine touches the palate, flavours of apple and cape gooseberry, grapefruit and a moderate herbaceous quality deliver a wine of freshness and style. Acidity is naturally higher with a soft saline note adding breadth and texture across the palate. Well made and ready to drink from day of purchase through end of summer 2026.
Tasting note
Pale lemon with excellent clarity. Bursting with musky, tropical aromas of passion fruit, mango, Granny Smith apple and grapefruit. Crisp, clean and mouthwatering, it's bursting with tropical passion fruit and zesty citrus flavours, framed by sophisticated musky spice, reminiscent of garam masala. Finishes long, luscious and dry.

Additional information
Varial: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
Food matching: Best enjoyed in the flush of youth, this is great as an aperitif or pesto, chimichurri, goats cheese, pan-fried fish, green-lipped mussels or oysters. The coriander, Thai basil and mint notes found in Vietnamese cuisine are also an excellent match.
Alcohol: 12.5% vol
Winemaking: The fruit is settled over 2 days, racked to tank and fermented leaving 2.6 grams per litre of residual sugar. This gives the wine added weight and texture. The wine then spends a further 3 months on lees before bottling.
Label design: The label pays tribute to the famous Pencarrow Lighthouse on the Palliser coast. It also pays homage to Mary Jane Bennett, whose lighthouse keeper husband died in 1855, leaving her to raise six children alone and run the lighthouse herself. This was a first for a woman in New Zealand in those pioneering days. She held the position for 10 years.
Cellaring potential: 2026
Closure: Screwcap
Notice: contains sulphites
Bottle size: 0.75l
