Cam Confidential
I've felt for a while that the exploding popularity and demand for Sauv Blanc from New Zealand has resulted in producers crafting their wines to be a bit more oaked, sugared, and mass-market appealing.
However, in 2012, we found a producer whose wine we loved so much, we took it a step further and created this brand for it. Sourced from a fantastic property in Marlborough, this wine is a no-compromise throwback to what put New Zealand Sauv Blanc on the map.
