6-Pack of Fincher & Co. Dividing Line Sauvignon Blanc | 2021

The Dividing Line is not your typical Marlborough wine. Forget words like “grassy” or “cat pee,” this is high-level Sauvignon Blanc, a barrel-fermented, wild-yeast, single-vineyard expression that will win you over with texture and tension. The source is exceptional: 100% Dillon Point, located in the cool sub-region of the Lower Awatere Valley. Purchased by the Giesen family in 1993, it sits on stony clay soils along the banks of the Opawa River, where yields are half that of most Marlborough sites. In the glass, sunbeam citrus and exotic tropical fruits lean into dried herbs, fennel, and poofs of char. Long, wavy, and precise, this is the kind of Sauvignon Blanc I love turning people on to. Get what you can. ~Allegra A
