Karu Estate Sauvignon Blanc 2012

Karu Estate Sauvignon Blanc 2012

  • Superb Sauvignon Blanc from our award-winning Chilean wine range - Karu.
  • An impossible price to beat for a wine of this calibre!
  • Excellent on its own and very food-friendly. Value and versatility in one.

This wine is an all singing, all dancing facsimile of one of the most-loved wine styles to have emerged in the last 20 years - Kiwi Sauvignon Blanc. It offers the same rush of sensual and lifted aromas, with a swirl of invigorating, dashing flavours as its counterpart, as well as the same desperately refreshing nature. It's a classic in the making, following hot on the footsteps of an already classic wine. What's more, it's a bargain, as you don't have to pay the Marlborough premium.
