This wine is named after Russian Jack (1878 – 1968) one of New Zealand's pioneers, known locally as “swaggers” who worked to clear the scrubland of the area for agricultural use. Picking grapes late into his life, locals erected a statue in his honour. Russian Jack is a deliciously vibrant Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc with lifted grassy aromatics which follow through to the palate, balanced by a crisp, refreshing style and flavours reminiscent of nettles and hawthorn.
