RAPAURA SPRINGS
A single aquifer connecting these vineyards to the Wairau River gives rise to more than the name and label design at Rapaura Springs – it is also an essential source of water that feeds their vineyards. By either growing or sourcing grapes from all of the sub-appellations of Marlborough, Rapaura Springs produces a range of deeply concentrated and complex wines that serve as a distinctive introduction to one of the world’s best known sources for high quality Sauvignon Blanc. Receiving outstanding reviews and accolades from many top critics – both in New Zealand and around the world – this label has quickly emerged as a go-to source for amazing flavours and terrific value wines.

EXPERT OPINION
“The 2015 vintage is mouthfilling, with punchy tropical-fruit flavours, a herbaceous undercurrent, and a dry, crisp finish. It’s already quite open and expressive.” –Michael Cooper, Buyer’s Guide to New Zealand Wines
