2022 Still Life Sauvignon Blanc
Description

Marlborough sauvignon blanc but not shit.
After travelling the world working for many legends of white winemaking such as Julien Labet, JJ Morel, Les Bottes Rouges, Vino di Anna and even a stint with Patrick Sullivan, Ashleigh Barrowman has returned to her homeland of NZ. A collaboration between Ashleigh Barrowman and local wine importer Dan Gillett, the Still Life series focusses on classic styled varietals from organic vineyards. Any modern producer of Marlborough Sauvignon claims that theirs doesn’t taste like Marlborough Sauvignon. Well this one does, and it’s highly drinkable. Some texture from partial barrel ferment, acid, wet stone, and mineral intensity, a dry and refreshing wine.

SPÖN Bottle Shop & Wine Bar: Made for Discovery

Born in Newtown
Nestled in the vibrant heart of Newtown – We created SPÖN as a cozy neighbourhood bottle shop and wine bar that feels relaxed, welcoming and distinctly its own. Creative, a little gritty, a little playful and always full of something new & unexpected — just like Newtown.
A bottle shop with a bar problem.
SPÖN - a discovery-led hybrid bottle-shop/Wine bar experience. Browse the shelves, grab a bottle and drink it at the bar — or pull up a stool and explore a daily rotating board of over 15+ distinct wines being poured by the glass. SPÖN is built around drinking what interests you.
Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
