St
Helena Winery
Sitting
just north of the City of Christchurch in the rich tapestry of New
Zealand's Canterbury Plains is St Helena Wine Estate. Founded in
1978 by the Mundy family, the vineyard takes maximum advantage of
the regions long, warm summers and dry autumns. This is an ideal
climate for producing some of the best grapes the Southern
Hemisphere has to offer. The result is a stunning selection of
wines produced from the winery's 20 hectare estate. In fact, St
Helena is acknowledged as the pioneer in establishing premium Pinot
Noir for New Zealand.
Owners
Robin and Bernice Mundy, and award winning winemaker Alan
McCorkindale, are passionate in their dedication to producing
exceptional fruit and wines from the vineyard and the continuing
development of Canterbury as one of New Zealand's finest wine
producing regions.
St
Helena Sauvignon Blanc 2007
Ripe
tropical fruit characters with underlying hints of asparagus are
displayed in this crsip. dry wine. A classically structured
Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc with excellent palate weight and a
persistent finish.
