COMMENTARY: The 2019 Momo Sauvignon Blanc is true-to-type and pleasing in the finish. TASTING NOTES: This wine is fresh, smooth, and delectable. Enjoy its bright aromas and flavors of tart citrus, dried herbs, and light pungent notes with pan-seared sea scallops in a brown butter sauce. (Tasted: December 3, 2019, San Francisco, CA)

MOMO, meaning offspring in Maori, offers a first taste of Seresin Estate wines.
Located in Marlborough, New Zealand, Maori referred to our region as 'Kei puta te Wairau' or 'the place with the hole in the cloud' referring to the topography of the Wairau Valley. Running west to east towards the coast, we are protected by the Richmond Ranges to the north and the Wither Hills to the south. High sunshine hours, a cool growing season and low rainfall have proven to be an auspicious combination, producing vibrant wines with acidity and depth.
Made with organic grapes selected from a small number of growers, MOMO wines are nurtured into the bottle with a gentle hand. The philosophy of minimal intervention but maximum attention is employed throughout the wine-making process resulting in vivid, youthful wines that show honest varietal character and quality.
Mindfully crafted for a true expression of the fruit and land, MOMO is set to become an everyday favorite.
