About the Wine

Tucked beside the Ōpaoa River in the heart of Marlborough, Black Cottage is where founder Dave Clouston and winemaker Sanna Stander blend laid-back Kiwi lifestyle with serious winemaking talent. The Black Cottage isn’t just a winery—it’s a gathering place. Days here revolve around cricket matches, clay shooting, fresh-caught fish on the BBQ, and glasses of bright, vibrant wine flowing among friends. It’s the kind of place you arrive at… and instantly never want to leave.

As a proud, family-run estate, sustainability isn’t a buzzword—it’s the backbone. The team is committed to nurturing Marlborough’s vineyard landscape by boosting biodiversity, restoring native habitats, and improving soil health through the Sustainable Winegrowers New Zealand program. In 2020 alone, they planted more than 500 native plants along the Ōpaoa River, with thousands more on the way through their long-term riparian restoration project. Lighter-weight bottles reduce their carbon footprint, and most wines have been vegan-friendly since 2020.

Black Cottage is dedicated to crafting wines full of gusto
and the 2023 Black Cottage Sauvignon Blanc embodies this philosophy perfectly with its juicy freshness, lifted aromatics, and unmistakable Marlborough energy.

Tasting Notes

This Sauvignon Blanc has a pale straw colour and a complex aroma of Feijoa, elderflower, guava, currant, and wet stone.

The palate is juicy with lime zest, while the mouthfeel is elegant, refined and focused.

Best savored with friends on a sunny afternoon with a charcoal grilled piece of fish topped with herbaceous chimichurri sauce.

Critical Reviews

Bright, even, pale yellow. The nose is fresh, with clean aromas of gooseberry, pineapple, elderflower and hints of capsicum. Medium-light bodied, aromas of gooseberry and pineapple melded with a lime zest, elderflower and subtle green capsicum. The wine is cleansing and pure with soft, juicy acidity. Lime zest and elderflower fragrance lift the wine, unfolding a hint of saline and a refreshing closing. Match with peeled prawns and steamed clams over the next 2-3 years. Fermented in stainless steel to 13.8% alc, 0.6 g/l RS, aged on lees for 2 months. Vegan friendly. ~ 93 Ramon Chan Wine Reviews

Distinctive aroma sand flavours of fresh red apple and angelica leaf, a mix of white pear and tropical fruit led by cape gooseberry then a touch of passion fruit. Crisp and dry with core fruit ripeness filling out the palate and enhanced by the acid line. Salivating with a touch of salinity leads to a balanced, even finish. An easy choice for the table through summer 2025 and through 2026. ~ 92 Cameron Douglas MS
