The ‘Sherwood’ brand has been a Waipara Valley stalwart for over three decades, interestingly, the name may be better appreciated overseas, where a significant proportion of the wines are sold. Dayne and Jill Sherwood also have other successful brands, arguably the best performing being the ‘Stoney Range’. To take advantage of this, the company has introduced the ‘Stoney Range Reserve’ wines to take the place of the ‘Sherwood’ ‘Signature’ label on the domestic market. This is a process that is beginning to happen now. The ‘Sherwood’ brand will continue to be produced for export. Here, I review the Sherwood ‘Stoney Range’ and ‘Sherwood’ ‘Signature’ 2018 Sauvignon Blancs, hot of the press (excuse the pun), and from a more favourable growing season than that previous. www.sherwood.co.nz
