Rod Easthope Martinborough Sauvignon Blanc 2015
About the wine
Get out of your Marlborough comfort zone with this elegant, complex stunner from Martinborough
- This super-refined Sauvignon comes from Martinborough - a small region perched on the bottom tip of New Zealand's North Island. We gave Rod carte blanche to make a spectacular wine that delivers insane value for money.
- Boy has he delivered. This super-refined Sauvignon is bursting with character and elegance - a million miles away from your typical supermarket Sauvignon Blanc.
- If you want a drop that looks expensive, tastes expensive, but isn't expensive... then this is the one for you. And because you funded it - it's Angel exclusive.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Rod Easthope
- Rod downed tools at one of New Zealand's most iconic wineries, to set-up-shop alone, and luckily for us, he knows the whereabouts of the very best grapes that Hawke's Bay and Central Otago have to offer.
- He has rave reviews from journalists, wines dripping in medals and oodles of Parker Points under his belt, and thanks to Angel funding and backing, he's now making wines exclusively for you.
- Using his prize fund from being crowned your Winemaker of the Year 2014, Rod was able to add a stunning Gisborne Chardonnay to his range. Years on and his wines never fail to impress - they don’t call him Rod the God for nothing.
