    Sorry, this is a sell out and the label has now been quit. We know, we're gutted too.

    Marlborough Sauvy, but probably not as you know it. Buckle in and get set for a Sauvignon taste sensation! This is weighty, complex, barrel fermented Sauvignon made by an NZ Master of Wine (Steve Bennett) and it’s absolutely world class stuff. 

    Produced using a type of wild yeast fermentation (it’s more natural and helps in the production of complex, super premium wines) with time in French oak barrels. Think Cloudy Bay’s Te Koko or Dog Point’s Section 94.

    Those will set you back over $40 and up until recently this little number was selling for $30 or more. Bennett’s decided to focus on his European wine importing game so the price on his Kairos wines have taken a tumble.

    Branch out and treat yourself to something different – this price is nuts for a wine of this style and quality!
