Description
Founded in 2012 by Baron Benjamin de Rothschild and the Peabody family, the Rimapere Estate takes its name from the Māori word meaning “five arrows”, the historic emblem of the Rothschild family — symbolising the union of European tradition and New Zealand spirit. Located in the heart of Marlborough, in the north-east of New Zealand’s South Island, the vineyard enjoys a temperate, sunny climate and Rapaura’s alluvial soils of gravel and pebbles, offering ideal conditions for wines of great aromatic purity and freshness.
The Rimapere Sauvignon Blanc stands out for its vibrant freshness, citrus and exotic fruit aromas, and elegant minerality, faithfully reflecting the Marlborough terroir and the precision of the Rothschild winemaking style.
