About Saint Clair Wines
Saint Clair Family Estate was founded by Neal and Judy Ibbotson who are the directors of the winery with more than 30 years viticulture knowledge of the Marlborough region. The company is a family business with the next generation also involved.
Son Tony is responsible for the design of all Saint Clair’s packaging, promotional material and advertising. He owns a design consultancy business, the Creative Method, in Sydney. Tony designed the original Saint Clair labels back in 1994, when he was a student. He has been refining and expanding the range of Saint Clair labels ever since.
Bright, even, pale yellow. The nose is expressive with aromas of fresh gooseberry, white currant, green mango, nettle and sea minerals. Medium-light bodied, aromas of gooseberry, white currant and green mango form a taut core, unfolding kaffir lime, nettle, elderflower and sea salt. Delicately textured phenolics provide substance and silkiness to the mouthfeel. Zingy acidity persists to a crisp, lingering with saline moreishness. A well-made, sophisticated Sauvignon Blanc shows refined layers and purity.
