Owned by the Neylon family, Rapaura Springs has an astonishing track record of Trophies, Golds and top scores for its wines. The family started a farming career with mussels and apples but found vines much more rewarding. They have vineyards throughout the best sites in Marlborough, and also work with a handful of skilled and loyal growers to gain access to the finest fruit. The result is sensational wines like this. It’s crafted from grapes taken from Blind River, the driest, coolest and most windswept subregion of Marlborough. Along with free-draining soils, it makes for ideal conditions for supremely elegant, mineral-fresh whites. Rounded, with intense citrus, ripe grapefruit and melon notes, the wine is great with spicy seafood or solo.
