Discover the grape variety: R&#228uschling

Lively and elegant whites with fine tension, a pale golden colour, a light palate with preserved acidity and signature aromas of citrus (lemon), white flowers, white-fleshed fruits (green apple) and mineral notes. A rediscovered heritage variety. Grown mainly in the canton of Zurich (lake shores), it produces characterful artisan cuvées. Ancient Swiss white variety, nearly extinct, now preserved for its heritage value.

The wine region of Marlborough

World reference for Sauvignon Blanc: aromatic, exuberant whites with signature notes of passion fruit, gooseberry, grapefruit and cut grass, sharp lively acidity and an iodised finish. King grape on 71% of the vineyard since 1972. Also fine, silky Pinot Noir (cherry, plum, spice), taut Chardonnay and lively Riesling. Traditional-method sparklers on the rise.


The wine region of South Island

New Zealand's southern island, cradle of the country's great wines. Sauvignon Blanc signature in Marlborough (~80% of national vineyard): explosive and tropical with grapefruit, passion fruit, boxwood, cut grass and mineral touch — global benchmark. Pinot Noir star in Central Otago (among the most southerly) and Waipara: airy with cherry, raspberry, undergrowth, thyme. Taut Riesling, precise Chardonnay, floral Pinot Gris.

The word of the wine: Green

Said of a wine that is too acidic or marked by unpleasant vegetal tastes.
