Alpha Domus The Pilot Sauvignon Blanc
- Hawke's Bay, New Zealand
Emigrating from Holland in the early 1960s the Ham family established themselves as nurserymen before going on to create Alpha Domus in 1990. They produced their first vintage in 1996 and joined our portfolio shortly after. The family's commitment is to produce premium quality wines that are true to varietal character and are a reflection of their unique terroir. All the wines are single vineyard estate grown and are made at the on-site winery.
"A fresh lively Hawke's Bay Sauvignon Blanc with aromas of pear, lime, gooseberry and riper tropical fruits. On the palate, a crisp palate with lemongrass, passionfruit, fennel and above all lime. The palate shows typical Hawke's Bay richness and softness, with a ripe texutre" Alpha Domus
