Bargain buy Sauvignon Blanc made by Otu Estate in Marlborough

Five star Marlborough Sauvy for a snip over $13? It’s music to your ears. It’s Music Bay and it’s made by OTU (pronounced o-two).

OTU is Otuwhero Estate and it’s named after the mighty Otuwhero River that runs through the lower valleys of Marlborough. This ancient river provides Otu with vineyards full of rich alluvial gravels and clay soils and along with its remote and rugged coastal setting it’s perfect for producing wines full of intense, ripe flavours!

Overseeing the OTU winery team is leading New Zealand female winemaker Anna Remond. Anna spent some 15 years with the world famous Oyster Bay winemaking team and has experience under her belt with vintages in Sancerre and Burgundy in France. Not only a bloody good winemaker, Anna is a mentor for NZ’s “Women in Wine Programme” supporting women to develop their careers in winemaking and reach their full potential.

This is real SauvyB bargain buy for the money with plenty of those delicious tropical and citrus fruit flavours with a crisp, refreshing finish. So chuck some in the cart, serve yourself a nicely chilled glass and crank up the tunes!
