Introducing the ultimate collection of Spy Valley wines! This award-winning collection is a must have this season for lovers of great Marlborough wines. With something for everybody, this will take your big occasion to the next level.

Spy Valley’s commitment remains to the land and to the people who tend it – they are simply farmers at heart, nurturing soil and vine to cultivate the complexities in our wine. And they’re mindful that it’s their focus on sustainability which will ensure our guardianship of this land for generations to come. They’re considered a little clandestine around Marlborough, deep in the bewitching valley. Perhaps it comes with being named for their proximity to the spy base down the road, but they like a bit of mystery.

Collection includes:

1 x Spy Valley Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2019

Enticing aromas of grapefruit, feijoa, bell pepper and a hint of orange zest. Mouth filling and vibrant with flavours of citrus, green herbs and tropical fruits. The mid palate is rich and textured while retaining fine acidity and elegance overall. 2019 has the ripeness and structure to promote in ageing ability. Fruit will be at its most vibrant in the first 2 years but expect this vintage to retain its freshness until at least 2024. The palate richness and complex characters should become more apparent as cellaring progresses.
