Beautifully crafted Sauvignon Blanc with its classic fruity, tangy zing but the Isabel has an extra smoothness on the palate thanks to 20% of the blend being matured in small French oak barrels, a technique now being adopted by many of the regions producers.

Founded in 1980 the Isabel Estate supplied other local wineries, Cloudy Bay among them, with fruit but since 1994 have produced their own wines.
