This is a piggy pink classic from New Zealand. On the nose, it's filled with ripe fruit flavours like field strawberry, mandarin and watermelon. With a drop like this, you'll be as happy as a pig in mud on a summer's day.

The nose is like being a kid in a candy shop fruit driven with juicy nectarine and wild strawberries and white cherry aromas.
For many people, Marlborough, located at the top of the North Island, IS New Zealand. After all, it was Marlborough, and its acclaimed Sauvignon Blanc, that brought New Zealand to the wine world’s attention. But although Sauvignon Blanc remains the area’s flagship, Marlborough’s diverse meso-climates and sub-regions also offer pure, intensely flavoured Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and aromatic whites.
Based in Marlborough, Spring grew up in Christchurch and studied photography and sociology at university before taking a shot at winemaking. To get there she worked her way up through hospitality, on to Lincoln University to study winemaking, into the cellar, then the wine lab before becoming a fully-fledged winemaker. Spring’s bubbly personality and creative background is reflected in Squealing Pig wines.
