Kim Crawford Small Parcels Spitfire Sauvignon Blanc

Kim Crawford Wines was established in late 1996, when Kim and Erica Crawford launched two wines made from fruit grown in Marlborough. The Crawfords sold the company to Constellation in 2005 and subsequently handed the reins over to the Constellation winemaking team, led by chief winemaker Anthony Walkenhorst, who had trained under Kim.

Despite Kim Crawford no longer being involved with these wines, the current winemakers and viticulturalists continue the classic Crawford philosophy and style.

In selected vintages, Kim Crawford releases their ‘Spitfire’ Sauvignon Blanc, named in commemoration of the World War II fighter aircraft base in Blenheim, the original site upon which vines for the first vintage of ‘Spitfire’ Sauvignon Blanc were planted. Often from a single vineyard, the small parcels selected have the most intense flavour of the vintage.
