The ‘Reserve’ bottlings of Rapaura Springs take the quality of the wines up a step for the Neylon and Wiffin families, owners of the Spring Creek Vintners facility, who have the brand as their own expression. Rapaura Springs has been a very successful entity, showcasing true Marlborough style and quality, while offering extremely good value. Michael Bann leads the winemaking on these wines, and it is easy to see his growing confidence, even in a challenging vintage such as 2017. The ‘estate’ 2017 wines I reviewed recently were very creditable (click here to see my reviews). Here, I review the 2017 ‘Reserve’ Sauvignon Blanc. www.rapaurasprings.co.nz
