Dog Point Vineyard combines experience of Ivan and Margaret Sutherland & James and Wendy Healy. Ivan and James met while working at Cloudy Bay Vineyards. Light straw with typical SB aromas adding a touch of floral mineral notes. On the palate flavors of melon and grapefruit with citrus and honeysuckle notes, generous acidity, great mouthfeel with long finish ending with a salty spice character.

If you like the local variety - žlahtina, you have to try this sparkling wine made from the same grape. It's as fresh and as light as the still version but the bubbles add an extra layer. — 5 years ago
