Mohua Sauvignon Blanc 2022

Peregrine Wines was established in 1998 by the McLachlan family in Central Otago, New Zealand. Organic farming is fundamental to the estate, with vineyards and livestock managed together as part of an integrated approach to land management. Winemaker Nadine Cross joined in 2010, bringing experience from France, California and Marlborough to the distinct high-altitude conditions of Central Otago. The vines are grown across three sub-regions: Bendigo, Pisa and Gibbston, each imparting its own character to the grapes. The estate's winery, completed in 2003 and designed to echo the arc of a falcon's wing in flight, has attracted attention for its architecture as much as for its wines.

The Mohua, also known as the Yellowhead, is a small, colourful bird native to the forests of New Zealand's South Island. Once widespread, it is now endangered, and sales of Peregrine's Mohua wines directly support conservation efforts to protect it.
