Product Information
The Ned Sauvignon Blanc displays punchy aromatics of lemon and lime citrus with undertones of juicy tropical fruits. Plush on the palate, showing juicy grapefruit freshness with lively acidity carrying these classical Waihopai Valley characters to a lengthy finish. You will not go amiss with flavours that complement the distinct varietal character in this Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc - a style that has a real sense of place. Think seafood and fresh harvested salads loaded with herbs. Try scallops sautéed in garlic butter with a slash of lemon, accompanied by a rocket and herb salad topped with fresh goat’s cheese. Crafted to be enjoyed at the peak of its vibrancy and freshness, we recommend drinking this wine within 2 - 3 years of vintage date.
Brand Marketing
Born of the Waihopai Valley, The Ned represents the vibrant diversity that is so prevalent in the Marlborough wine-growing region. One of Marlborough’s famous peaks, The Ned mountain served as the playground for Marisco founder, Brent Marris, during his youth. The ethos “Young At Heart” encapsulates this wine; a true expression of grassroots winemaking that places the energy and liveliness of adventure in every bottle.
History
Named after the tallest peak in the Wither Hills range - The Ned is an iconic symbol of Marlborough and therefore an appropriate brand name for one of New Zealand's fastest growing wine brands. Brent and Rosemary Marris founded Marisco Vineyards in 2003 and launched their new company with wine brand The Ned.

Serving Suggestions
Whilst classically matched with most seafood why not push the boundaries and try the Ned Sauvignon 2015 with your favourite sushi set (maybe sans the wasabi - in the first instance, at least!).
