Introducing...Tangotango...Scout & Cellar's First Clean-Crafted™ Wine from New Zealand
According to New Zealand’s centuries-old Maori culture, it is believed that humans owe everything to nature. Tangotango, named after a celestial being of Maori myth, is a Clean-Crafted™ wine that embodies our commitment to living simply, to honoring the land, and to making wine as naturally as possible.
About the Wine: New Zealand is famous for its uniquely delicious Sauvignon Blanc, which are notably fresh and exuberant with citrusy and herbaceous notes. The 2019 Tangotango Sauvignon Blanc is no exception. This elegant, aromatic Sauvignon Blanc is bursting with notes of fresh lemon and key lime, balanced by lemongrass and herbs with a stony minerality and a rounded, well-textured frame. Pairs well with seafood and soft cheeses.
About the Region: While Marlborough may be the most well-known region in New Zealand for Sauvignon Blanc, this wine hails from Hawke’s Bay—located on the North Island, about 300miles northeast of Marlborough—and we think that makes it pretty special. The region is a hidden gem of New Zealand winemaking, notable for its soil and weather diversity, which lead to elevated, distinctive wines that are rounder and smoother in texture, while maintaining those delicious citrus and herbal notes for which the varietal is known.
