Alex Roper is an independent winemaker whose 'Stables' Sauvignon Blanc comes from Marlborough on New Zealand's South Island, the region that put New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc on the map. Wines Direct includes the wine in its range for its honest varietal character and the value it offers compared with many big-brand alternatives. Marlborough sits at the northern tip of the South Island, where long, sunny days and cool nights allow Sauvignon Blanc to ripen slowly while keeping its bright acidity. The free-draining, stony soils of the Wairau Valley suit the variety well, producing wines with citrus, gooseberry and herbaceous notes alongside a crisp, refreshing finish. The Stables Sauvignon Blanc is a versatile white that suits goat's cheese, green salads, asparagus, and lighter seafood dishes such as oysters or ceviche. It's a reliable choice for anyone who enjoys the zesty, aromatic style that Marlborough is known for, and Wines Direct delivers it across Ireland.
