About this Winery

Misty Cove Wine Group Ltd was founded by Andrew Bailey in 2008 and is a family owned collective of like-minded passionate people producing both conventional and organic wine from the Marlborough region of New Zealand. Andrew and his team oversee the vineyard and wine-making process right through to the sales, marketing and administration ensuring every bottle produced is lovingly hand crafted. Marlborough is widely considered by wine critics to be the best place in the world to produce Sauvignon Blanc and the Shy Albatross is no exception. New Zealand has a particularly high diversity of albatross, with 11 of the world’s 22 species of the great albatross breeding there. Albatross are the largest of all sea birds and are most frequently seen in the oceans of the southern hemisphere south of about 30°. They come ashore only to breed, usually on remote islands, and this lifestyle has meant that until recently little was known about them and their travels across the world.

Shy Albatross

Shy Albatross

  • VARIETAL: Sauvignon Blanc
  • APPELLATION: Malborough
  • TASTING NOTES:
    The bouquet showcases tropical melon, gooseberry, and citrus aroma that transfer to a well-structured palate of passionfruit and herbs. The finish is refreshing and long lasting.

  • TASTING NOTES:
    The colour is a delightful ruby red and the bouquet shows violets, berry fruit and gentle smoky aromas. Red stone fruit, fresh raspberry and subtle earthy characters dominate the palate, tempered only by the fine ripe tannins.
