While most of our range of wines are made to be easy-drinking, fruit-forward and quintessentially 'New Zealand in a Glass', our Sauvignon Blanc Oke is one of our most complex, intriguing, and acclaimed wines.
Each vintage has racked up more awards than we have room on the shelf for, and every time we show the wine at consumer and trade events, people are blown away by the unique aromatic profile, and flinty, complex flavours that emerge from the glass with time.
So, for the first time ever, our winemaker Sam Bennett has decided it's time to showcase three vintages of this sublime wine. Our Oke Vintage Vertical is a six pack case of wine, featuring two bottles each of our 2015, 2016, and 2018 vintages. This vertical is a fantastic insight into how beautifully Sauvignon Blanc can age and develop.
We are offering this incredible wine package for a limited time while stocks last, for just $150 with complimentary shipping for all New Zealand customers. To make this gorgeous wine even more accessible, we're offering a special promo code for a fabulous $30 discount off your order. Just pop in the code OKE at the check out and your discount will be automatically applied. Click here to explore this unique wine experience on our online store.

te Pa 2018 Sauvignon Blanc Oke: 95 points & 5 stars
Impressively complex and inviting, the bouquet shows grapefruit, crunchy apple, oatmeal and lemon peel aromas, leading to a concentrated palate that's gorgeously flavoursome and persistent. It's brilliantly structured by vibrant acidity, finishing long and engaging. At its best: now to 2026.

te Pa 2016 Sauvignon Blanc Oke: 95 points & 5 stars
A beautifully maturing sauvignon; the wine shows golden apple, dried grass, apricot and jasmine aromas on the nose, followed by a wonderfully weighted palate that's richly textured and expansive. It's gorgeously harmonious and complex with seductive savoury nuances, making it immensely appealing. At its best: now to 2024.

te Pa 2015 Sauvignon Blanc Oke: 96 points & 5 stars
This is stunningly beautiful; it's fabulously scented on the nose showing mango, baked fig, apple and beeswax notes with hints of lemon zest and almond. The palate exhibits outstanding concentration and depth, wonderfully enhanced by multi-layered mouthfeel and perfectly pitched acidity. At its best: now to 2025.
