Dog Point is a prestigious wine producer based in Marlborough, in New Zealand's South Island. The winery was established in the early 2000s by Ivan Sutherland and James Healy who had previously worked together at Cloudy Bay as viticulturalist and oenologist respectively. The vineyards were some of the earliest to be planted in Marlborough and thus have some of the oldest vines in the region. Dog Point is named for the sheep-herding history of the area.
The Section 94, a barrel-fermented Sauvignon Blanc is the flagship wine from the producer first released in 2002, it has become a benchmark for barrel-fermented Sauvignon Blanc in New Zealand.
A complex full bodied style of Sauvignon Blanc with a chalky minerality and fresh herbal influence, complimented by a vibrant acidity which gives the wine focus. Alluring, ripe grapefruit and lemon curd predominate. Jasmine, toast and honeycomb. Flavours of Meyer lemon linger with creamy textures and a toasty, nutty finish.
