The brand came about when a family of Southland farmers bought paddocks in Gibbston back in the day &#8211; after which a handful of producers like Chard Farm, Gibbston Valley and Peregrine started to make wine &#8211; the boutique, family-owned label of Waitiri Creek joining them.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-4e52641 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4e52641\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-cc4d1ff\" data-id=\"cc4d1ff\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7b81f77 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"7b81f77\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"735\" height=\"980\" src=\"https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/WCreek-Stella-Sav-2019-v-768x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-8411\" alt=\"WCreek Stella Sav 2019 v\" srcset=\"https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/WCreek-Stella-Sav-2019-v-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/WCreek-Stella-Sav-2019-v-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/WCreek-Stella-Sav-2019-v.jpg 950w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 735px) 100vw, 735px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5194585\" data-id=\"5194585\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c56deee elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c56deee\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b>Sauvignon Blanc 2019<\/b><\/p><p>Grown \u2018by their neighbours\u2019, this is the kind of Sauvignon Blanc from Central Otago that I\u2019ve been discovering in the last year &#8211; including my visit last November.
