Bright tropical fruit, citrus zest and a hint of gooseberry, at just 79 calories a glass and zero sugar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMarlborough is the most popular style of white wine in Britain, and it earns it. Long sunshine hours and cool nights at the top of New Zealand's South Island ripen the fruit fully while holding the acidity sharp. That's what creates the rush of passionfruit and freshly cut grass you can pick out from the first sniff.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe catch is usually the alcohol. All that ripeness means most Marlborough Sauvignon finishes at 13% or higher, and a standard glass lands around 112 calories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOurs comes in at 11.5% and 79 calories, without losing what makes Marlborough Sauvignon worth drinking. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBright tropical fruit up front, citrus zest through the middle, and a classic hint of gooseberry on the finish.

Any colder and you lose the aromatics that make it worth drinking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGoat's cheese is the classic pairing and still one of the best. It also works beautifully with oysters, white fish, prawns, asparagus, and salads with a sharp dressing. The acidity handles chilli well too, so it holds its own against Thai and Vietnamese food where a richer white would fall over.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQuestions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it dry or sweet?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProperly dry. The tropical fruit is aroma rather than sugar, which catches people out. There's 0g of residual sugar in the bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it taste watered down?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. It's full strength at 11.5% and nothing has been removed. The calories are lower because the wine is fully fermented and made from fruit picked at the right moment, not because anything has been taken out of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it keto friendly?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
