Sileni Estates was born from a long-standing interest in wine by Graeme Avery. In late 1997, along with financial director Chris Cowper and winemaker Grant Edmonds, he established Sileni as an export-oriented producer, committed to crafting world-class fine wines. The winery is named after the Sileni who featured in Roman mythology alongside Bacchus, the God of Wine. They celebrated good wine, good food and good company; to us here at Kwoff, the holy trinity. The vineyards and winery are based near Hastings, Hawke’s Bay - the oldest wine region in New Zealand - on the east coast of the North Island of New Zealand.
Grown on a variety of soil types - gravels which provide tropical flavours, clay loams produce citrus notes, and deep silty soils lift the aromatic quality. A portion of Semillon has been used in the final blend for additional complexity and palate weight.
Sileni Cellar Selection Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough reminds you what made Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc famous! There are tangy grapefruit aromas with a zingy finish and impeccable balance. Try with a goat's cheese and sun blush tomato tart!
