Description
Daniel Brennan's Decibel Sauvignon Blanc captures the sunny yet maritime-influenced character of Hawke's Bay, offering a vibrant alternative to Marlborough's classic style. Grapes are harvested at peak freshness, destemmed and gently pressed, then fermented cool in stainless steel to preserve vivid aromatics and bright fruit. No oak is used, ensuring clarity of expression. The wine is aromatic with notes of passionfruit, gooseberry, green apple and subtle fresh herbs, underpinned by a trace of saline minerality typical of the region. On the palate, it is dry, zesty and light-bodied, with crisp acidity and a mouth-watering finish. This Sauvignon Blanc is excellent as an aperitif, with shellfish, salads or Thai-inspired dishes. Its precision and energy make it a standout for those seeking a balanced and food-friendly white wine from Hawke's Bay.
