Rock Ferry 3rd Rock Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2015 $25

The Hutchison family own certified organic vineyards in Central Otago and in Marlborough, which is where this snappy sauvignon blanc hails from.  Quite different in style from your usual Marlborough sav’s, this wine has deeply complex smoke, peppery watercress and basil aromas, which lead to a multi-layered, herbaceous mineral-rich palate.  It’s definitely a sauvignon designed with food in mind, so have a glass handy next time you’re serving classic, creamy, smoked fish pie.
