Huia Sauvignon Blanc — Marlborough 2025
Huia Vineyards was founded in 1994 by Claire and Mike Allan with a simple conviction: that Marlborough's finest expression comes from small-scale, unhurried winemaking rooted in the land. Today, under owner Tom Pegler and winemaker Josh Lee — whose career spans Greywacke, Dog Point, and biodynamic estates across Europe — that conviction is stronger than ever. Every grape is grown organically on estate vineyards and sourced from a handful of trusted Marlborough growers who share Huia's values. The result is a Sauvignon Blanc of rare purity, precision, and place.
The nose is captivating: pink grapefruit, lime blossom, crystallized ginger, cantaloupe, passionfruit, and honeydew melon. On the palate, the wine is pure and lively — Granny Smith apple, gooseberry, key lime pie, and a touch of pie crust and hazelnut, carried by raw, energetic acidity and evolving length. The finish is refreshing, balanced, and utterly delicious.
Wine Advocate 91 (Prior Vintage 2024) — "Juicy, uncomplicated and tropical, with lashings of fresh fruit flavors underpinned by crunchy acidity. Everything is in place here. This is quite delicious." — Erin Larkin
67 Wine Buyer Bart Hopkins — "A delicate golden shimmer in the glass with scintillating aromas of pink grapefruit, lime blossom, crystallized ginger and honeydew melon. Pure and lively in the mouth with harmonious flavors that dance across the palate with a ballerina-like weightlessness. Delicious!"

There are times when a wine, at first sip, captivates me with charm and beauty. The 2024 Huia Sauvignon Blanc is one such wine.

Pure and lively in the mouth with harmonious flavors that dance across the palate with a ballarina-like weightlessness. A refreshing kiss of acidity adds energetic lift and balance to the invigorating finish, and makes it an absolute pleasure to pair with meals.
