At the Black Cottage we are dedicated to producing a range of wines full of ‘gusto’. Combining select parcels of fruit with modern and alternative winemaking techniques, we strive to create very special wines which are approachable and delicious.
The Black Cottage, situated in the heart of the Wairau Valley, is where winemaker David Clouston lives and spends quality time with friends and family. It is also the quiet space in which he contemplates and constructs the very special wines on which he has built a fine reputation.
Harvested at optimum ripeness fromour hand-tended vineyards in the heartof Marlborough’s Wairau and Awatere valleys. The grapes were gently pressed and fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel to maximise fruit purity and varietal character. This is classic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc.
Pale yellow in colour this Sauvignon Blanc has a vibrant nose, full of passion fruit and gooseberry. The palate is lively and well-balanced with concentrated tropical and passion fruit flavours, mingling with juicy acidity and leading to a long lingering finish. Very drinkable.
