Saint Clair Family Estate Takes A Bow On The Global Stage

Saint Clair Family Estate confirms its position as a global wine brand through recent international show success.

The International WSA (Wine and Spirits Asia) Wine Challenge held in Singapore 20th-23rd April has awarded Saint Clair Family Estate two impressive trophies. The Saint Clair Pioneer Block 3 43 Degrees Sauvignon Blanc 2009 was awarded the Best White Wine and also the Best Wine of the Show.

Gold medals were awarded to both the Saint Clair Wairau Reserve Sauvignon Blanc 2009 and the Saint Clair Pioneer Block 3 43 Degrees Sauvignon Blanc 2009. Saint Clair Family Estate was the only New Zealand winery achieving gold medal status at the event.

The recent Hong Kong International Wine and Spirits Fair 2009 also awarded the Saint Clair Pioneer Block 3 43 Degrees Sauvignon Blanc 2009 two trophies. Best Sauvignon Blanc and Best New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc.

The international show success continues for Saint Clair Family Estate with the India Wine Challenge 2010 awarding the Saint Clair Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2009 a gold medal as well as the prestigious White Wine Trophy.

The reputation as being a New Zealand premier winery is reflected in the recent list of the world’s best 100 wineries compiled by the World Associate Wine and Spirit Writers and Journalists. This list placed Saint Clair at an astonishing number 49 internationally (as at 28/04/10), extraordinary status for the family owned New Zealand winery.

Managing Director, Neal Ibbotson is thrilled with the recent international recognition and comments “The fantastic results are attributed to our unique quality assessment system which has identified superior sub-regions of Marlborough. This combined with a team approach focused on quality has lead to Saint Clair Family Estate being one of New Zealand’s most awarded wineries”.

The continual consistent award success reflects the strong quality focus and ability to provide a superior product that over delivers at each and every price point.
